Have also seen the scenario where the Pilot Flying gets NLG on the ground and he stops 'flying'. His 'technique' is that now it is no longer an aircraft.
Those guys will have mud on the flaps at some point in their career.
As previously stated, that marvellous wing on the -400's flys right down to minimumairspeed displayed. ALL of the flight controls work right down to fast taxi.
NRT is only one of the many places where you have a busy control column with all gear on ground. I always think of back taxi at Kai Tek after landing.
We have all been along with someone (usually senior) who pulls off a miracle, and is not aware of how close he was. If junior, I step in, and then we talk about it ASAP. Talk, not cajole, not berate. Talk. It's how we pass along the BTDT stuff.
