Show the error.


Please explain how increased power can increase lift without first producing
increased velocity.

If the nose is pointed down (going downhill) , and you increase power, you
WILL descend faster.

It's one thing to blindly parrot something, but when you modify it without
understanding it, you risk saying something incredibly stupid.
