Many Thanks for your help.

I have now managed to have a successful landing, so thanks for your help. I opted for flaps 15 and therefore a higher approach speed.
One thing I did try was to maintain my approach just above the glide slope. My reason for this was so that within the last 3nm of the approach I would adopt a lower nose up position (say 2.5 degrees rather than the usual 5) and therefore the N1 would be reduced as I was effectively ‘gliding’. Remembering to flare big time over the piano keys to ensure a smooth landing.
Auto brakes on 2 were sufficient at Manchester and as you said in the wet I would have other factors to consider. Thankfully FS 2004 doesn’t simulate different runway conditions.

Thanks for all your help
