Change in TAS with constant Power and increasing altitude.
Chris
At you talking about throtttle setting?. To hold the same % POWER as you climb, you have to advance the throttle until you get WOT from which point the % power decreases as you continue the climb.

The airplane will maintain about the same CAS at a particular percent power setting regardless of altitude. It's my understanding that, that only works for small changes in altitude. And that the amount of power required to maintan the same CAS goes up with altitude. |
