May find that the situation is powered at least twofold from the ops guys:
1. ICAO led initiative to reduce accidents from "unstable" approaches.
2. Flight data from safety analysis [and the oversight enabled big bro'...] derived from approaches thus monitored.
This is understandable given the reduction in experience levels, longer haul/ duty time "requirements". The "rest of the world" has taken it on board, QF likewise, get used to it boys and girls. And yeah I like to go fast too!
The bean counters with cost index? - have to agree with the previous posts!!
