Slow Flight = straight and level flight?
Asked by: Earhart 6643 views Aerodynamics, General Aviation
To fly straight and level, we must maintain a constant heading and altitude.
When performing slow flight, if we maintain a constant heading and altitude at MCA would we technically still be considered flying straight and level?
The reason I am asking is because the nose would be pitched up (not "level"), but the plane would still be maintaining a constant heading and neither climbing nor descending (constant altitude).
