Greetings:Carlos and I were discussing high altitude ops the other day and somehow we got onto the subject of attitudes and altitude. I thought this topic might generate some interesting comments.
Here's the situation:
If an aircraft maintains the same flight configuration and TAS (True Airspeed) at various altitudes, does AOA (Angle Of Attack) change or remain the same?
How about if you maintain the same IAS (Indicated Air Speed)?
Of course if you say either changes, explaining why will get you an extra 10 points!
