This thread must be one of the worst I've ever read on PPRuNe. It confirms that the vast majority of civil pilots posting here simply didn't understand their training, or that their training was cheap, nasty and inadequate.
Ok BEagle, if your training was so superior, PLEASE could you answer my question as until now, all the answers we have had are people talking about "energy management" without actually answering the question which was:

What happens, with a plane like a PA28, trimmed for straight and level flight if the pilot:

1) Increases the engine rpm by 100rpm

2) after returning the plane to straight and level, trims the plane slightly up?

Yes, this is a theoretical question, however I want to know what happens IF one is moved without adjusting the other, does one have a more marked impact on the aircraft speed compared to rate of climb than the other?
