Millerscourt,
To be fair that's not what I asked. My question was considering your evasion of V/S on the B767 how do you deal with an undesirable speed decay from your selected speed when in the descent with FLCH and/or VNAVSPD ?
What annoys me is a complete avoidance of a designed mode for absolutely no operational reason and actually in contradiction to the manufacturers advice.

If you think an accident doesnt apply to you because of a seemingly obvious poor crew conduct and you're perfect record so far then you have a lot to learn about how our industry has developed. The vast majority of us have never come close to this or any other accident but there will always be lessons (or reminders) for all of us. I would hardly classify it as CFIT. There was nothing controlled about it.
