Default RE: Position of throttle while taking vertical nose dive?


ORIGINAL: overbored77

At the speed the plane is travelling and the force applied to the elevator at pull up, there will be a certain amount
of blowback on the control surface. this will cause the plane to pull up alot slower than usual. And
it may actually meet the ground before it has a chance to level out.
Much to the surprise of the pilot, who will promptly exclaim that there was no response from the plane when it went in!
