you had speed breaks you would allow the pilot more options to control
descent given that right now the system that governs the RPM/MP has

ability to slow the plane without cutting the throttle.


How is that different from every other airplane without speed brakes, where
you need to reduce the throttle in order to slow down without changing your
flight path?

Bottom line is that if a person has speed breaks, he is less likely to fly
slow because he can shed speed whenever needed.


Dude, seems to me that by now, you've seen "speed brakes" spelled correctly
often enough that it's time you start doing so yourself.

Bottom line, the phony Fadec system isn't really all that good.


Funny...lots of people find it works just fine. It's not a FADEC, by the
way.
