Landing configuration demonstration. d. With gear and flaps fully extended, continue to slow the airplane to, and maintain, an airspeed at which any further increase in angle of attack, increase in load factor, or reduction in power would result in an immediate stall, and maintain that airspeed in level flight, noting the airspeed and power setting required, while;
Bottom line
Since slow flight will be performed well below L/DMAX, the pilot should be aware that large power inputs or a reduction in AOA will be required to prevent the aircraft from decelerating.
