He says you can increase or decrease the power and the pitch attitude remains the same, so thrust line is apparently perfect. How can this be? It is aerodynamically impossible. At 173 mph and at max RPM a decrease in rpm will cause the aircraft to descend to maintain 173 mph. Thrust line has nothing to do with it, Its aerodynamics that cause pitch changes with different rpm setting. That's why when you were learning to fly you instructor told you to control airspeed with pitch and altitude with rpm. Chris Theroux Gilbert, AZ
