The A56 drag coefficient is a bit more than a Lear and an F-104, so
it's pretty slippery.

True, but its still a truck compared to a Mooney.

But I think teaching this particular method as the only way for every
airplane is a mistake, as it will eventually lead to overly fast
landings when the student climbs aboard his/her faster airplane.

I think anyone who teaches either technique and claims its good for
all aircraft is probably full of crap. I wouldn't teach flying
approaches w/o flaps in a 767.


Wel, as a matter of fact, we do have to do that....
