    "The descent rate varies with altitude and weight. Normally above 10,000 feet, the descent from cruise altitude is done with idle thrust, going anywhere from 1500-3000 feet per minute. Pilots typically begin this descent when they are within 150-200 NM of the airport.

    Once below 10,000 feet, careful speed monitoring is also necessary. At this stage, the descent must slow down, flaps deployed, spoilers used, and various other manuevers performed. The descent now can be anywhere from 500-1000 feet per minute. Without ILS, if the runway is being approached visually (not uncommon) then the descent rate may go to as little as 100 feet per minute, slowing even more as the aircraft prepares to touch down.

    Altitude, airspeed, trim, flaps, thrust, and pitch all play a role in the descent rate."
