Quote from Sidestick_n_Rudder:
"Why use flaps for holding at all? The only reason I see is if max hold speed is higher than minimum clea[n]."
Think you meant "if minimum-clean is higher than maximum holding speed"?
Quote from PENKO:
"Who cares about the deck angle?"
A non-event when seated. But, at the end of a flight, the cabin crew might find the holding pitch with Flaps 1 (slats only) of about +8 degrees tiresome when using trolleys to clear the meal service, or whatever. Possibly worth a mention to the SCCM?
