I'd only practice ILS "peddle faster!" approaches. You'll only get the
request at a large airport and then you'll always get it on the ILS.

Large airplanes fly the ILS at 140 to 160, so if you go from 90 to 120 kts,
you'll help them alot, and in my Arrow, the procedure is:

Fly the approach with trim, leave power in.
At breakout, pull power and wait for 150 MPH or lower.
Lower the gear.
Wait for 100 MPH.
Lower flaps.
Land.

Never had a complaint.

As for breakout, I don't worry about speed. At these airports there is
plenty of runway and the arrow stops on a dime... Now, if I were in a
Mooney.........

A few questions about fast (by spamcan standards) approaches in busy
terminal environments:

1) Is there any point in practicing any "best forward speed" approaches
besides the ILS?

2) How fast is fast enough? Obviously 120kts is better than 90kts
(maybe 1.5m less time after you turn onto the localizer), but does the
additional 20-30 seconds saved by going 130-140kts make a difference?

3) Do you fly these in a different flap/gear configuration or just use
more power?

4) Do you try this even when expecting to break out at minimums (with
less time to slow down)?
