John,

Could you expand on that?

I don't understand how at a *given power setting*, that a 60deg *level* bank/turn will have the same load factor when you then relax the back pressure to allow an XXX F.P.M. descent.

The back pressure to maintain the altitude was generating the load factor wasn't it ?

So theefore the load factor should decrease, as you relax the back pressure ?
