I find it amazing that an individual can take a technique from the Boeing Flight Training Manual, put it into his own words and then call it his own.

The so called "Jacobsen" flare has been standard operating procedure in some airlines for 20 years that I know of and probably longer than that. The power of Pprune to put your name to something!!

I propose the "Moosp Touchdown" which occurs when the pilot concerned forgets to flare a Boeing jet and presents the rubber jungle to the passengers. There, now its mine!

"Traffic" has it with more humour than I but you begin to see the point...
