Descent
When you're ready to begin your descent from cruising altitude, move the prop pitch back to 15 and lower the King Air's nose slightly (reducing your prop pitch decreases the torque and drops the nose so this may not be necessary). If you need to adjust the balance after a few minutes to reduce pressure on control surfaces, trim down a bit. Your airspeed should be about 200 knots until you begin the approach.
