BA38s engines "Hesitated"
Dear Dont Hang Up,
During my 30 years of descents, I almost never did one without some level-offs or "Holdings", but I think, that was what the BA38 crew did.
And further more, I was almost always "Stabilized" no later than 1000 ft. and had my engine anti-ice system "on" when flying in and out of clouds.
