I know. Mine was accomplished last summer, and done outside an "industry" circumstance. The point perhaps is that the concept is not necessarily encouraged (or, in fact, is prohibited), which is a negative for pilots today. Why not encourage the practice of energy management to 1,000' AGL in VFR conditions to agree with industry stabilized approach criteria? Being fuel efficient and proficient in your craft can't be a bad thing.
