(The following pointless point is in response to your pointless point)

So what? I've had to slow down in a piston twin to follow a 757.....doesn't mean the 757 is slow. It means that a piston twin (or a Caravan) can maintain a higher speed on final because they can configure and slow down much later. A jet needs to be stabilized much earlier. You'll see when you get a jet job. So, stop posting just for the illusion of contributing unless you actually know what you're talking about.

(my intended tone is meant to be informative, I'm sure you're a fine aviator)
