I've been having a great time working on my IFR ticket in my 7 .. but am finding that during approaches to ILS/LPV minimums (~200 AGL), I have a hard time getting the plane to slow to a good landing config. And them my landings are c**p.
Current setup is to come down the glideslope at 100 kias, no flaps, at about 10 - 10.5 MP. Makes for a very nice approach. However, when flipping off the hood at mimimums and trying to get the plane slow is difficult .. even with power out, full flaps, it's too hot. FLOATS.... yea! Forever.
What techniques do you use? Slow earier? Partial flaps approach?
