flaps being up.
I've flown turboprops (twins, many years ago) and one technique I used in mountainious areas was to descend with just gear down. Mind you, I didn't plan to make the approach in that configuration, but descending with gear down increases the rate of descent, while keeping the plane pretty level.
with flaps down the nose is usually down.
has anyone figured out the sun angle? could it have been flicker vertigo?
