to me, the visual approach to runway 13 at LGA was the highlight of a month of flying. as you know, the winds don't favor 13 that often. the view over central park and the hudson river were just wonderful.
I'm sure you remember the Delta guy who creamed his gear off on such an approach.
I realize any of us could screw up anything. But with discipline and practiced stick , rudder, and judgement skills we managed to carry on.
so dear captjns, and bubbers, those were great days. And I blame human resources and other things which keep good pilots out of the cockpit and put marginal pilots into the cockpit.
