Danger lurks in circling approaches

Air Facts

For example, some aircraft limit flaps and gear in icing until on approach or forbid the use of speed brakes or require a minimum thrust setting. At what AGL altitude will the aircraft be in a stable/configured condition? (No The rule of thumb is VSI = ½ groundspeed times 10. No later than).
