  1. start riding a bike alot then you will no the proper time to slow down and also once you master that on a bike take off the brakes but im not responsible for any one killing themselves its just an example


  2. I assume you are talking about some kind of flight simulator.  Sorry to have to tell you you've been had.  Real airplanes handle so differently from computer-based simulators that there is really no comparison.

  3. I do not  know what your altitude is. If it is 4000 ft. and you have 28 m. remaining, and you have 15 min. eta then your descent rate will be about 250 ft per min. maintaining your current airspeed with your throttle.

  4. How is it possible that you fly a plane that has a Appr speed of 147knts and has speed breaks and you don't know when to start decending?
