Sounds like someone's a bit touchy aye Meeb?. I'm sure I flew with you once.
QFE is dying out (thankfully) either through the retirement of the old dogs who were taught it and can't bare to change, or accidents and incidences making airlines rethink their operations manuals. Yes, used for landing, and what happens if you miss the approach? Great time to be resetting the altimeter. FireflyBob is on the money there. Not necessary with today's machinery, and in most cases very dangerous.
When do you set QFE? At the transition altitude? That can be as high as 18'000ft. or do you wait till you're established on approach? What do you call over the FAF? Altitude or height? (for non-precision). I've never used it and never met anyone under the age of 60 who has, but that's not to say it doesn't have it's advantages.
The rest of the world uses QNH and ISA now, perhaps you should join the party Meeb
And I don't think the site's been hi-jacked by spotters and prats, but there are still the odd arrogant SOBs who know it all, yet can't add anything constructive.
