Because the air is less dense thus the TAS is higher for a given power setting and for this reason modern jet aircraft are designed to be most efficient at high altitude.

1. Unload. Make sure you are no longer 'pulling G's'

2. Roll wings level

3. Power Reduce the power to avoid overspeeding.

4. gently pull back on the control wheel to ease out of the dive.

When slowed down to a safe airspeed apply throttle as needed.

(N.b.: Do not confuse a spiral dive with a spin)

Because of the distance which has to be covered to reach 41.000 feet which may not be convenient for a short flight.

On long flights it is more typical to fly at 41.000 feet when the aircraft weight and performance allows.

A wing design feature where the angle of incidence of the wing decreases from the root to the tip.

This makes it so that the wing as a tendency to stall at the root first, maintaining aileron control for a longer time and providing a resistence to spinning, facilitating recovery.

Because the specific gravity can change with temperature.

Mcrit is the aircraft’s Mach speed at which the airflow over a wing becomes sonic.

The speed is too low for an indication.

This speed is defined to be equal to the greater of stall speed (Vso) multiplied by 1.3, or stall speed (Vs1g) multiplied by 1.23.

The landing configuration that is to be taken into consideration can be defined by either the operator or by the aeroplane manufacturer but is most commonly assigned by the manufacturer.

To notify the crew of the aircraft of a particular position on the IAP.

Locators have been largely replaced with Distance Measuring Equipment (DME), but they can sometimes be found associated with Outer or Middle Markers where they are referred to as Locator Outer Marker (LOM) or Locator Middle Marker (LMM).

You can go through a DA, but not a MDA.

A Decision Height, used in precision approaches, defines the point where a go around should be performed. It accounts for the altitude loss during the initial seconds of the go around maneuver.

The MDA does not account for this and assumes the pilot will never go below this altitude. When performing a CDFA most operators establish a Derived Decision altitude (DDA) to account for the extra lost altitude.
