During a constant airspeed descent, which flight instrument provides the primary indication for maintaining airspeed?
easy
You are in straight-and-level flight at 90 knots indicated airspeed. Power is reduced to initiate a descent while maintaining 90 knots constant airspeed. What pitch attitude change is indicated on the attitude indicator?
