I realize you are probably just trolling but if not please enlighten us as to how dive and drive is safer.


And while you're at it, explain why no major Airline still uses that technique.


We used to do d & v back in my 727 days and it was dodgy then,
In my modern Boeing we do a constant rate descent LNAV / VNAV
to a DDA on a non precision approach and there's no comparison.


It is 100% safer.
