Final Approach
Can y'all please help me out with some advice on approach speeds in the 172 and 182. Thanks in advance!
Turbulence and weather are not a factor in my examples.
Let us say we are in an IFR cruise descent nearing our destination airport. Please talk to me about the speed step-downs, where and what speed.
Let us say that we are at 120 kt in a C-172 in cruise descent (the exact speed in cruise descent is not important). Please walk me through your speeds through the approach up to the MDA/DA. When and what speed(s).
Also, do you carry flaps before MDA/DA? How much and when?
Let us say that we are at 135 kt in a C-182 in cruise descent (the exact speed in cruise descent is not important). Please walk me through your speeds through the approach up to the MDA/DA. When and what speed(s).
