Obviously it means less difference in temperature from top to bottom. Functionally in my very limited experience/conversations you want to set a fan-assisted oven to 10-20C cooler then a standard oven (probably closer to 10).

This is what I was always told. Also, preheating fan-assissted ovens is generally unnecessary.

IME, you always need to preheat the oven. It's often quicker in a fan-assisted oven, but not by anymeans always or by much. Otherwise, as [livejournal.com profile] numberland said. It really doesn't make all that much difference. ([livejournal.com profile] stripey_cat says she doesn't think the difference covers the cost of running the fan - more even top-to-bottom heat, but less even front to back, so not a reliable improvement. Her experience thus seems slightly worse than mine, but not by very much....)

nthed, I drop the temp by about 10 degrees for mine and it does fine.
