Ok "in my last airline" so landing the a/c is taught on the basis of ' what works for you' is it? Go read the FCTM is your words of wisdom to all SFIs. Well its being read and that's how its taught. Now I'm pretty positive that not all the FOs that you fly with are poor at landing the aircraft and I'm even more sure that not all cadets have equally the same problem. However I am interested to know, what; in your humble opinion is being done incorrectly?

As for rotations, maybe you should read the FCTM. VR is the point where rotation is commenced, Not the point where the nose wheel is off the ground. VLOF is where the aircraft is airborne (usually between 3-4 secs) and the target pitch attitude is 15 degrees, not 17. It is taught in the sim to look outside, as this the initial step of having them spot the direction of yaw in the event of a V1 cut or EFATO.

If you are experiencing continual issues then I would certainly agree with galacticosh. It may be best to deal directly with the training department
