crunk...one thing I have learned about pilots is this:
at some point, you get the sweetest landing you ever had and you used an unusual technique. so, somehow you think...gee if` i can only do that again
and they use a nutty technique...just hoping.
well, they got lucky once, but they learned to be stupid.
I knew a dc9 captain who trimmed into the flare on every landing...his landings wer pretty good...but I told him that if I was the captain I would tell him not to do it that way as the technique will bite you in the butt one day.
you might even use the same phrasing to tell the pilot he is wrong.
once in awhile a burst of thrust does save things...but to do it all the time may mean he has vision problems!
