How to properly flush radiator in 1997 Subur

Hi, this is a very basic question.  How do I access the drain plug on the radiator?  It seems impossible to access from the bottom and from the top I am having difficulty getting a tool on it.  Could I just undo to lower hose instead?  If so, how do I prevent a mess. 

Second question. What is the best way to completly flush the system i.e. not only the radiator, but the fluid hung up in the engine and the hoses?  Could I just refill the radiator with water, then run the car for a few miniutes and drain again?  I know I might have to do this 2 or three times and it wouldn't be 100%, but is it good enough?  Thanks, Rob
