A

energy losing OR energy neutral manuever

19
Q

What type of energy conservation (gainer, loser, neutral) is:
Power-On Stall

A

Energy Gainer

20
Q

What type of energy conservation (gainer, loser, neutral) is:
Nose High Recovery

A

Energy Gainer

21
Q

What type of energy conservation (gainer, loser, neutral) is:
Nose Low Recovery

A

Energy Loser

22
Q

What type of energy conservation (gainer, loser, neutral) is:
Inverted Recovery

Power-Off/ELP Stall

A

Energy Loser

27
Q

What type of energy conservation (gainer, loser, neutral) is:
Slow Flight

A

Energy Neutral if done from traffic pattern or power-off stall, otherwise it is an energy loser
