Close the thrust at TOD and plan to be overhead the field at 250 kts/1500ft for a visual. Start a turn with about 2.5 mile radius that will take you all the way through downwind base and final rolling wings level at 250ft and spooling up.

Through base it looks like there is no way you can make it in. All the time you drop flap all the way to flap40 as she decelerates ( This is the key ) and she just sinks!! Then stop shorter than a Baron. And reverse into your bay.

Not many jets can do that. Loved it.
In Africa it was way more reliable than 737 's
