Got me thinking that in the early days on SEP trainer A/C the target V/S was 3 mps = 600 fpm at 140 km/h indicated.
How come the same V/S gives me two-white/two-red these days at 120 knots over the ground? I certainly don't remember the PAPI showing all white then.
Touché, quick check with AIP reveals it is still set for 4,5 deg, twenty years later since my last visit. .
