I just bought a Mooney M20J after flying a Piper Archer for about 500 hours. I never really worried about what speed to fly on an instrument approach. Whenever I got near the FAF I cut the power and soon added flaps and would soon be at final approach speed. That approach won't work in a Mooney.
I'm wondering what other Mooney drivers do. When do you start slowing down ? What speeds do you aim for at the IAF or Vectors, FAF etc. What power settings ?
Thanks,
Evan
