Fly a controlled stabilized approach, as directed by the POH, normally best
L/d +1/2 the wind speed (up to a reasonable speed of course), less than 1/2 For the G103, the baseline speed is 52 knots for the pattern. This is lower than best L/D, but a fair trade off between glide angle and energy. Though, in my club, they threw out the POH and mandate 57 as the baseline speed. Go figure. Jim Vincent CFIG N483SZ
