19
Q

Power settings (roughly)

  1. Approach, flaps 40, gear down descending
  2. Flaps down, gear down level flight < 10,000
  3. Steep turns at 10,000 ft.
A

Power settings
1. Approach, flaps 40, gear down, descending - 58%
2. Flaps down, gear down, level flight < 10,000 - 70%
3. Steep turns @ 10,000 …………………………………… 72%
(basically any configuration in a descending approach is about 58%)

20
Q

Power settings for stalls

  1. Clean configuration @ 250kts
  2. Takeoff and approach - 20 degrees, gear down
  3. Landing stall - 40 degrees and gear down
A

Clean - Idle
Take off and approach - 55%
Landing - 55%
