Default Final Approach B734


Kevin wrote:
Hi all,
I have a few concerns with landing a B734 (flight simulator). Does
anyone know where I can find a POH for this aircraft. Also, in the
flight simulator, it seems as though i can never find that happy medium
between velocity and flaps I speed up and gain too much lift, I
decrease speed and drop too fast....I adjust flaps and completely lose
it. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? Sorry for such a basic
question, but for some reason my knowledge of landing cessnas isn't
carrying over to the 737...imagine that!
Thanks,
and I appreciate any comments...sarcasm and serious alike.

I dunno much about flying jets, but I remember someone once told me on
a jet it's the other way around to a light a/c.. In a Cessna you use
power to control rate of descent and attitude to control speed but on a
jet it's power = speed and attitude = rate of descent.
I have had a crack at our local 737 sim and he got me to fly at 145kt
with full flap all the way down the approach. Seemed to work well...

Dunno if this will help but bonus if it does aye.. :-)
