It's really helpful to know what power settings will yield what performance characteristics in different configurations, that way even on a VFR landing, you aren't sawing the throttle around or flying inconsistent airspeeds on final. For my aircraft, on an ILS it's 13" of MP level, 11" for the descent and 9" on short final. Works every time.
Great video. A great way to figure out what to do with the airplane when you're getting vectors for an ILS in KTEB with a whole slew of jets in the approach sequence!
CFIs: I'm not sure if this is a good thing to teach... Definitely not a good thing to advocate accepting slum dunks... I understand there are times when being able to blend into the traffic would be nice but don't let ATC fly your plane...

Correction: At 1:56, you say "Drop the Flaps", but you mean "Drop the Gear" as you are reaching for the gear handle. A minor point, but still a great video, thanks.
@MetaView7 You missed the whole point of the video, they are programming the best computer in the cockpit. This computer sits between the pilots ears and requires no software updates and instead of electricity it burns oxygen which the pilot is supplying just by breathing!
@usmanchoudry that's not his transponder. that's for the ADF, the instrument to the left of it. the transponder is seen at 2:34 at the bottom of the screen
Its good to practice these things. A turkish airlines 737-800 crashed on a slam dunk approach into the schiphol airport because they where not paying attention to their airspeed because they left all of the checklists to the last minute. This happened in 2009.
quite technical for a slam drunk....

Good tutorial, and nice execution on that ILS.
