Most new turbine pilots over shoot, because they aren't used to the idle. Another issue that I see is the turbine pilot flies it like a glow engine or EDF. What I mean by this, is the approach is high on final. Chop the power to idle, diving to the runway using the flaps as speed brakes, which they aren't!
