Well with the likes of Sub Orbital and Des Dimona telling us all that we MUST hand fly this approach I will have to go back over the last 11 years on the 737 and thank the almighty that somehow I cheated death every time I passed over Sheed.

How about we loosen up on the joystick boys and acknowledge that there are numerous ways to safely conduct this approach.

As Porch Monkey described it can be flown effortlessly and very accurately in LNAV/VNAV and can be manually flown just as well.

Hopefully the high horses are back in the corral.
