Me too, although clearly the old 'follow-me-thru' QFI patter doesn't quite cut it with the FBW/SS. I find that a good way to demo the 'picture' is to let Bloggs watch an autoland, freezing where necessary and pointing out when the 'nose down' pitch starts to become effective.
It is a black art teaching landings in the Airbus and guys really should have a good grasp of the techniques before they get onto the real aircraft; it is, after all, what the sim is for!
