Europa-List: When to extend the flaps

Some postings indicate that the safest time to extend the flaps, is on 
final.

I prefer to slow down on base and extend them while high, then set up the 
glide path.
The turn to final, with full flaps does not seem like a hazardous 
manouevre, but if it is, will someone let me know !

On take off, Jim T suggested for the tri-gear, full down deflection on the 
pilot side aileron, and just matching the flap angle to this. A good 
compromise that seems to work better than full flap, at least on pavement.
