I seldom post here anymore because having retired from aviation I now have a different life style.
However sometimes these discussions make me wonder how aviation never seems to evolve in an upward trend......especially when it comes to how to hand fly an airplane.
Logic tells me flight training should have evolved upward, reading these forums tells me it is evolving downward when it comes to flight training generally speaking.
The cause is not difficult to determine though, because you can not evolve upward using flight instructors who have not only been taught improperly generally they have never worked in commercial aviation.
As to the following comment.....
Aircraft with high wing loadings typically need to be flown onto the runway as they tend to drop like a stone when power is removed.
For decades the Americans flew the space shuttle with zero landing incidents or accidents, the space shuttle had a high wing loading and a high rate of descent on approach and the landings were hand flown with no incidents.
