That sounds like good advice. In fact I was coming to that conclusion from the other comments above. I think I am focussing to much about arriving on the numbers with the engine at idle, I will try to pick an aiming point a couple of 100' down and not worry too much about getting it down in a hurry. There is a ton of runway to play with - 4,800'
