TC`s way of explaining T/R failure and/or T/R malfunction reminds me of my old flight instructor who taught me the very same way. This plus the ongoing discussion about whether it makes more sense to do it one way or the other reminds me of the most important lesson some of us tend to forget:
- maintain aircraft control
- analyse situation
- take proper action
If you can't slow it down to a speed suitable to make a running landing you better start looking for an alternative solution.
