Trouble is Jammer that as I mentioned on an earlier post our company has knocked 10 knots off the Boeing speeds to reduce flap stresses. On the 757 we cannot take 30 flap until 152 knots. Sure you can fly an approach at 160 knots till 4D then slow to 152 and take full flap but the "snitch box" will have your "company defined" non stabilised approach recorded. It can all be flown but I would prefer to keep my licence.

Thank Heavens they never had "snitch boxes" on the 727. The reviewers would have had heart attacks!
