Max descent gradient on final

If you are very high on a straight-in approach, and have to make the max descent gradient to be stabilized on short final, you need max drag (final-landing configuration), throttles idle, and then:

- Vmax for your configuration
- Vref (+ additives)
- Depend on the AC type

Thanks
