A little web research revealed that it is a military flight rule.

From: Wikipedia, Modern United States Navy carrier air operations http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_Uni ... 2Fapproach

Penetration/approach

In order to maintain proper separation of aircraft, parameters must be precisely flown. Aircraft descend at 250 knots and 4,000 feet per minute until 5,000 is reached,

at which point the descent is shallowed to 2,000 feet per minute. Aircraft transition to a landing configuration (wheels/flaps down) at 10-nmi from the ship.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Wow. I wonder why you need such a complex approach :P
Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

I think it has to do with aircraft security based on post 9/11 changes.

Maybe Doug (Flying Trucker) knows and will chime in.
