Gee, I thought the last 6 pages has been about using power to control the glidepath and elevator/pitch to control the speed. Now you are actually pitching (down in your example) AT THE SAME TIME as pulling the power off. Glad to see you're coming around...


Energy? May the energy force be with you, 737jock.
