Have found that in large aircraft such as the TriStar, ref+10 works quite well for most all occasions, except in the -500 series, where +5 is better due to the higher computed Vref speed.. .Have watched many pilots try for a greaser, only to float half-way down the runway....not good.. .Get it on (and keep it on) at the aiming point for best results.
