What would be the figure for the 737-800 at gear down F15, and gear down F25, both without speedbrake?
We dont use speedbrake when Flaps 15 or more on the 737,at least not on purpose
As you seem to have plenty of 757 experience ,it wont take you long to pick those pitch settings up.
I personally never paid attention to IDLE thrust pitch attitude as one would simply have to pitch for airspeed,no?
Now if you are planning for an idle thrust continuous descent rather than a proper 'visual',then gear down flaps 15 will be about pitch -2/-1deg and 1300ft/min, flaps 30 about 15-1600ft for speeds of 140-150 kts.
For 'stabilised' approach pitch and thrust settings the post from 'elpiloto' seems quite correct except the 4 deg for 250 kts,the NG will always at speeds 250 or more what ever the altitude(5000 or FlL 410) will be level at 2.5 deg.
The 737 has 5 basic pitch one must know.(15/7.5/11/6/2.5),with a few sims youll know which ones are which.
Enjoy
