That's for a third-part seat sub like a reserve pilot or someone who picked it up for pay. If the seat sub is an examiner, then you're going to get what you get.
Fair enough but
the seat support suggested using spoilers/air brakes thats a no-no.
Why am I the only one reading the original post that way?
while I was on final approach my right seater suggested I use airbrake to slow down
