Hi Wireless

My configuration for landing C152 is as follows:

As turning onto base, carb heat on, reduce to 1500RPM and hold attitude. In white line select 2 stages flap. Use 5 full goes on trim. Nose will settle so that the horizon is about half way up front screen at 65kts. This should allow you to turn finals at about 700ft.

Turn finals, carb heat off, 3rd stage flap and should come back to 60kts. From there on its a case of juggling throttle and attitude to maintain the glide path and speed.

Oh, and add 5kts if doing a flapless landing.
