Guess the remarks about chasing needles were for me..i
i understand the need to know power settings for different phases of flight..but the attitude difference between flaps 15 and 30...idlike to see YOU staring at your attitude to see that you point your nose at 3.5 degrees and not 4 degr..

ie on final(as the thread title suggest)one should when increasing flaps,add power slightly before speed drops and keep vsi where it should be,trim out if necessary and the pitch attitude reveals it self..it works for me..
But i do understand the concept of having to know power settings and pitch in case failure of all airspeed intruments..
ie in a turn know how much increase of power is needed,increase slightly pitch by feeling to conteract nose drop and keep vsi on zero..then trim..is that bad?
