After the ORD DC10 incident we didn't have to slow to V2 any more. If we were doing fine at V2 plus 15 we could maintain it. I would have done it anyway but the corporate guys had to come up with it. Now the stabilized approach is the big thing. ACARS transmits descent rate and airspeed so any deviation from standard is sent to dispatch. Lots of go arounds for no reason I am sure. Retirement is wonderful.
