@Amiri01 ,Thanks for pointing out the effects of being above or below VIMD. So, I take it that - below the min. drag speed decrease in speed leads to an increase in drag which in turn leads to a further decrease in speed?

Also, with regard to power curve. I was told by a friend that reversal of control occurs on the backside of the power curve. He didn't know what it was either but had read about it. Any idea what exactly happens on the backside of the power curve ?

I've understood that it is in relation with power required to power available.
