Hi, I have a question:

Whenever I start my descent at the end of a flight and slow down a little, a strange warning horn sounds all the time until I throttle up a bit. I thought it may be the gear warning sound but this happenes at pretty high airspeeds (above 100 kIAS) and while I'm still a few thousand feet above the ground. So what does this sound mean?

It's the gear warning horn. It occurs regardless of airspeed and altitude, and is operated only by power setting if the gear is not down.
