- This model has a further flap position, known as the "Jesus Flap", for short approaches. The flaps descend a further 20 degrees while the ailerons stay at -8 degrees. This setting adds drag without affecting lift: as a result the approach path becomes extremely steep.

'Jesus flap' is the steep landing setting. It adds another 20 degrees to the +55 of the normal landing flap. the B model doesn't have the Jesus setting and landing flap angle is reduced a bit: from +55 to +38 degrees if my memory is correct.

One more thing why I love the 20: The flap handle tells you which position it wants to be in - it moves itself into the optimum position (if you help it overcome the friction with your hand).
The ASW-20 flight manual states other speeds, but they are slightly wrong: 43-60-70 kts (80-110-130 kph). You will notice a wrong flap setting immediately: If your flap setting is too positive, you will feel (!!) the brake effect. It will actually feel as if you used the brake in your car.
I'm relatively new driver about 30hrs . I've noticed there doesn't seem to be a "6" flaps statistic columns in the manual that was provided with the ship only 5 ? And the "Jesus flap " is labeled as #5 It's definitely more than 55 degrees .
