Aterpster,

Last time I asked the boeing guys why they dont call for a Go around maneuver(ie unstabilized approach) when pilots touch down passed the touchdown zone,I was told it is captain decision

Quote:"VGSI and RNAV glidepath not coincident."

The pilot, regardless of experience level, is well-advised to follow the glidepath rather than the VGSI in such cases, for any number of reasons.Unquote.

Could you please elaborate?
