Ok,
I've been following C.J.'s thread for a while and have a question. I'm not an
intrument rated pilot, though I've studied for it a few times. In my aircraft,
it's more comfortable to fly the glideslope at 60 knots than at 80. If the
controllers aren't hammering at you to keep the speed up, what's the problem
with doing that?
For you controllers - if ATC *is* hammering me to keep the speed up and 60 knots
isn't good enough, how long am I likely to have to wait before I could make my
run at 60? Assume a typical class C airport.

Great discoveries are not announced with "Eureka!". What's usually said is
"Hummmmm... That's interesting...."
