Slow Flight

[midlifeflyer]

I don't want to start a pitch versus power debate but for slow flight I teach my students that power is for altitude, pitch for airspeed.

I don't think you'll start a fight. I'm pretty sure that even the power for airspeed/pitch for altitude people agree that what you say is true in the case of slow flight.

"Region of reverse command" is a nice phrase.

To the pitch for airspeed people, it simply means that you need more power to go slower.

To the power for airspeed people, it also means that you do the opposite in this configuration.
