Thanks for the link. I did search for similar posts but all it did was to confuse me some more
Greeners appears to sum it up best for me:
"Initially at our school we teach attitude for speed; when climbing at full power, or descending in the glide, there is obviously no option. However, we 'flick the switch' once the student has reached a designated 500 foot point and revert to 'point and shoot', using attitude to point at a consistent spot on the runway and throttle to manage speed, and find that most people find ths an easier approach to make consistent early landings."
But many appear to contradict what he says when putting forward their preferred method of final approach airspeed/height control.
Air Pilots Manual says control speed with elevator and height with throttle during final approach but I dont particularily want an argument with my instructor during this critical phase of flight.
Saying that my final landing yesterday was a greaser using his method
