When I was in pilot training, there was a photo of a wadded up fighter...
the caption was "any approach can be salvaged"...
Funny how little things stay with you for decades... and more so now when I
found out they don't give ribbons or extra pay for doing stupid stuff....<G>
High? I go around..... Steep idle approach.....if not stabilized by
1000ft...go around.... go around isn't a crime...unless it is your third
time around <G>....
I think my record is 3....the first was mine and the next two were ATC...try
telling that to the pax <G>.......
