Some context, the average labeller on our platform puts in a single digit number of hours on our platform, works whenever and how much they want, and earn significantly more than an uber driver.

The manifesto had many disjointed themes, and some of the arguments Marc made seem intentionally inflammatory or oversimplified (and it has to be intentional polemicism, he's too smart -- and it's too on the nose -- for it to be a

I first heard about it during simulator training (from an official instructor, no less) and tried it in the simulator.

Nosewheel should never be anywhere near to being the first thing to hit the runway. In a Piper, for example, this would be an easy mistake to make but if you're landing a Gulfstream with the nose that low-down, you're in serious t

100% the nose should never be anywhere near nose-down. And there's a solid argument for never doing anything that's not part of the official training canon. But the fact that it works is fascinating.

I think it is also affected by the slight increase in ground effect as the wing flies closer to the runway surface. so the pitching down is somewhat offset by the increase in wing efficiency--and probably a set of other interplaying factors
