Over the years I have heard many debates about non precision approach descent rates.  Should one fly a stabilized 500 foot per minute descent? Or should one descend rapidly to get down low and find the field.  We recently flew the Napa 36 L Localizer approach and came up with some data that might suggest being fluid with both types and applying the most appropriate to the terrain hazards and conditions.  Please enjoy The Finer Points!
