182 (1966) power settings for each instrument approach mode
Asked by: CFIinNENC 6975 views Instrument Rating
I'm working with a student to get his IFR rating in his 182. Cessna of course provides no information for recommended power setting when flying in the various configurations during an instrument approach. We've tried a few settings and we think we have them ... but I would appreciate some other thoughts on what these settings should be to help determine if we're close.
I believe so far we've got 17" 2200rpm for Approach Cruise. 15"-2200rpm Approach Cruise Descent for glide slope. 12"-2200rpm for non-precision approach ..... not sure about any of the rpm settings; I've seen higher numbers elsewhere. Plus ... I'm thinking maybe we should be using flaps on a non-precision descent. Please help
