Table Explanation

This table shows approximate power and trim settings for flight
configurations that would be encountered during the descent and
approach phase of flight.

To use this table, select the row that best represents the desired
descent rate, flap setting and gear configuration combination. Move
right across the row to find the pitch attitude, engine setting (N2),
trim setting and airspeed for a stabilized, trimmed flight condition.
