When it works out right, do you have to add power back in if you put in last flaps that far out or will the added drag slow you down to your landing speed without much power change?

It is an advanced maneuver and takes a good feel of the plane to keep the descent path stable as you put the speed brakes out and stow them before you flare.
Interesting procedure. So I assume you mean steepen your glideslope to cross threshold at same reference point but positioning the plane to land before the touchdown landing points? Assume this would be more useful on a visual approach?
Define what you mean by reference point.
This is how you move the plane on approach from a 3 degree GP pointed to land at the 1000’ mark to a 3 degree GP pointed to land at the numbers while maintaining Vref. This is what Mark described he did by pointing the nose at the numbers, that increased airspeed, lost Vref, and then floated in the flare about 100’ for every knot above Vref, which negated the effort of trying to land short.
Speed brakes is a tool to use during non-standard approaches which some airports require.

In a turbojet you dial in the throttle to give you the airspeed you want once on the glide path. You are 160 - 170 KTS to the FAF. Gear down one dot before GP intercept. Flaps to land once airspeed below 160 KTS. Vref is 100 - 105 KTS. Adjust throttle to get there.

My ILS approach profile for the Merlin is level power adjust to 180 clean, localizer alive first flaps, glide slope alive second flaps, one dot above intercept gear down then last flaps when runway is visible or 2 nm out. This continued addition of drag slows me down on schedule so that a slow walking back of the throttles is all that is needed coming over the threshold into the flare.
If this is not an ILS or just a visible it works out well with 10,7,5,2 DME as replacements for the ILS cues.
When done this way the Merlin basically flies itself.

Does FS teach at FAF in CJ's Here u go.
Van, Thanks. I am going to practice this.

What are the flap settings in the CJ? In the PC12, we're 15 degrees one dot prior to FAF.......I get gear and flaps almost simultaneously as I like to drop gear below 150knts, then flaps 15 degrees below 130kts. 15 degrees of flaps in the PC12 takes 22 seconds to deploy.
For me a stabilized approach is NO config changes until runway is assured.

We used to come up with VREF by taking a base number, which I forget now, and adding I think 3 knots for every 1000 pounds of fuel and 1 knot per person. So if our base number was say 105 and we had 3000 pounds of fuel and 5 people we’d use 119 knots VREF. Yep I use APG. But I also calculate with my own rule of thumb. Takeoff - takeoff weight /100. Divide by 2, add 58 gives V2, subtract 5 for Vr. So it 10,000 lbs you get - 10,000/100 - 100/2 - 50+58=V2 108 Vr 103. Landing - landing weight/100. Divide by 2, add 58 gives Vapp, subtract 7 for Vref. I check that on every flight. Andrew

Hi Allen. By "reference point" I would mean ones intended point of crossing the threshold at a certain altitude at a certain speed. Vref. Thanks for pointing out the FSI diagram was OEI at the DH.
