24 year old girl is what I heard was the pilot flying as FO. I always looked at my yoke to see what the FO was doing during a wild approach knowing I could fix it. You don't get that feedback in the AB so you have to see the result before you can intervene. Not a good way to monitor an approach. I am so happy I retired flying a Boeing. Most of the wild approaches were pilot induced even though they always claimed turbulence. Monitoring the yoke you could see if the roll came before or after aileron input and knew the truth. Military pilots were prone to overcontrol a lot on short final causing their own turbulence. Flame away.
