Yeah - rather like when they say you "have to be prepared for any expected event", then arguing that an engine failure is not an expected event!

It would appear that 'normal aviation practice' does not include quickstops or engine offs, but does include manoeuvring and taxiing for a decent landing position. This from a CAA guy. Unofficial. Well, maybe not. He heard it from a friend. In the bar. And it was in colour, so it's got to be true.
