..or it is a bit like trading airspeed for altitude to achieve a better climb rate. Everyone on board gets excited by the new and improved climb rate, but nobody sees that the speed is bleeding off. As we approach the stall we are forced to pitch down again. As we plummet towards earth we look at each other wondering what went wrong. Surely, nobody could have predicted this one?!?
