I fly a Sovereign, which gets in to short runways as well.
Sooner or later, you need to get to stabilized approach criteria.
What does pay have to do with that?
Who says it isn't stabilized within the proper requirements. You think we would do 2,500 feet per minute all the way to the runway? You think we are stupid? We still get stabilized by the proper AGL requirements (less than 1,000 feet per minute). At no time does the EGPWS go off requiring a go around.
And I thought pay had to do with everything in this industry.
