Ever notice how the engines go to 'High Idle' when the flaps are deployed? It's designed to improve engine response!
Config 3 landings on an empty aircraft or 3.5 degree approach? Thrust typically around 35-42% till touch down (very near idle).
So whats this rubbish about being spooled up at 1000ft to avoid a dead stick landing????? This is not a 777!
Come on
