We use a Performance software program named COMRAD. After inputting a lot of data it gives us the exact, best flap setting. Exact to the decimal. ie 16.7 degrees or 14.5 degrees etc. Basically the lighter we are the higher the flap setting. On repo flights is the only time I usually see Flaps 25 degrees.
