Today it felt like a lot of power was applied with a lot of flaps late in the descent and we ended-up dragging through the sky in a very nose-up attitude, which must have been very inefficient.
This may have been because you were slowed down early, to minimum approach speed for example, by ATC due to the traffic situation ahead of you.
