Reduce to 240 knots in level flight at about 3,000' and 15 miles to run. Take the gear approaching the glide path, letting it decelerate but still maintaining level. Flap 2 as you hit the glide path. You can't let it stay fast as it hits the glide path, as it just won't slow down and go down, simultaneously.</p><p></p><p>The fin of an A380 probably has a similar area to the wing of a 737. The side force involved in sideslip is huge. Too huge. The FBW would fight you too, as it doesn't like sideslip. Not a viable way to be flying on instruments either.</p></blockquote><p></p>
