March 8, 201214 yr Greetings!I'm wishing to find out what degree of flaps is OK for banking the 737 on approach. For example in circling to land. Is it deemed OK to bank the aircraft from base to final at flaps 15? What is the maximum flap rating you should use?Thank you, Iain WilloW (YMHB) flaps2approach.comB737-800 simulator

There's no maximum or minimum flap settings for banking outside of load factor limits. ___________________________________________________________________________________ Zachary Waddell -- Caravan Driver -- Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/zwaddell Avsim ToS Avsim Screenshot Rules

(I didn't want to complicate the question with speed)... I had "heard" incorrectly that it was best to never bank the 737 with greater than flaps 15 out...Thanks for answering the question, Iain WilloW (YMHB) flaps2approach.comB737-800 simulator
