Hi Mike,

Please note that I only have 46 hours of instrument time!

With lots of trial and error= and with help from Clark Baker (LNC2 360 IFR pilot), it use the following s= ettings:

       - Pre-Approach Mode @ approx 15 nm from= IAF: 20 MP  2,200 - 2,300 RPM
       - Approach Mode @ approx 10 nm from IAF= ): 18 MP 2,300 - 2,400 RPM  (160 - 140 knots IAS)
       - Approach Mode @ approx  5 nm fro= m IAF): 15 MP 2,400 RPM (140 - 120 knots IAS)

       - At 140 knots, +10 deg of flaps comes=20= down (from reflex mode, negative flaps)
       - At one dot above the glide slope, gea= r comes down @ approx 120 knots IAS.
       - approx 500 to 750 fpm descent until D= H @ approx 110 knots IAS.

Works most of the time...  Clark and others with more experience may want to modifi= y or add to the above.
