The 330 does carry energy well, you have to plan well, put accurate descent winds and appropriate speeds in, make all level off's conditional - at or above, at or below, if you are in a Trent powered one, allow a little for anti ice, if you want to save some gas, drop the cabin descent rate to 250' per minute, that starts you down sooner but saves a couple of hundred kee's of gas. Once you have finished fannying around with vectors, clear the box to an inbound radial, use the level off arrows, let the force be with you !
My best - Miami radar GTK head went down, we were left high into POP. Started down from 390 at 75n.m. track - entered downwind at POP, 210kts, level 1500' - awesome beast, 8900 f.p.m. Asked the back end if they noticed anything - no came the reply
