The way I land a 747 to stop it on a 5,500 ft runway, or 12,000 ft is quite different.
You do not know how the idiot preceding you on the ILS is...
I am teaching constantly how the other stupid guys could be.
Call it teaching "awareness".
Who knows, I am one of them.

Do not assume that everyone is flying "by the book" in all circumstances.
If you are that perfect, ok. I am not. Just human.
Now that I leave the career, I still want to help the young ones.
I learned from my "seniors" as well, and sometimes from my F/Os or F/Es...
Pprune is great for all of us. Did not exist when I learned to fly.
All the best to all of you, fly safe.

Happy contrails, always
