Not having any pilot training whatsoever, I gotta ask: "attitude" or "altitude"? I could believe the former, but I want to check.

- dbaupp 14y agoI'm not a pilot either, but I'm fairly sure it is the former. I believe "attitude" refers to the angle of the plan with respect to horizontal (so pointing up or down very steeply is an "unusual attitude").
- rquantz 14y agoAttitude -- that would be, the alignment of the plane to the ground.
- HeyLaughingBoy 14y agoAttitude. An "unusual attitude" refers to the aircraft being in a configuration that is not normal in controlled flight (e.g., flying inverted). I think that's close to the FAA definition.
