Capt Solitist,

Thanks for the info on the bleeds solenoid
Regarding the 'definition' of a stabilized approach I believe all was mentioned above.
I remember being taught, Red over White: You are allright
White over white: Wake up!
Red over Red: You are DEAD
Airports like NICE, do have their papis set for the big Boys/girls(B747), so on the glide you will see 3 reds and one white.(in your 737).
Once you transition off the papis, yes yes go for the AIMING markings on the tarmac...

Being stabilized VFR with thrust in ,configured,correct ROD,,,but overhead the threshold at 500 feet is not stabilized
