TypeIV -Some captains refuses to extend flaps 1 unless there is like a 25-30kt marigin in still air
There's no benefit in typical ops for extending flaps at higher speeds. Guys get 5 kts under the maximum limit - "Flaps 1".
Sometime later the throttles get pushed forward. Guess they didn't need that much drag afterall.
The slower the speed at extension the easier it is on the a/c and the more efficient it is.
