Congratulations on the 3000th post, but

I do not aspire to fly like an autopilot, I trust you don't, either. My observations are based on a 1000 hours of T-Gs and approaches with students in the Galaxy, and another 10,000 in everything from the C-150 to the Galaxy.

Truth be told, it is hard to separate the two actions. If high, pulling off the power will require pushing the nose over and vice versa. But, we trim for airspeed and not for altitude.
