In "Normal" operations, an increase in power is required to travel faster, and a decrease in power is required to travel slower.

In the Region of Reversed Command, an increase in power is required to travel slower, and a decrease in power is required to travel faster.
It is where stick forward = climb and stick back = descent.

Most likely you will encounter it where more power is not an option.

eg (over)loaded at full power and trying to out climb something.
Think I might stick with old fashioned idea of stick=speed and power=ROD/C that I was taught even in 48kt approachs in the C150 with gusty winds.
