What happens at the completion of the slow flight maneuver in terms of flaps?

At the completion of the slow flight maneuver, flaps should be fully retracted. This is important because fully retracting the flaps helps transition the aircraft back to its normal flight configuration, which is essential for maintaining optimal performance and control. In slow flight, the aircraft is operating at a lower speed, and flaps are deployed to increase lift and enhance control. Once the maneuver is complete and the aircraft is ready to resume normal flight, the flaps should be returned to the fully retracted position to ensure the aircraft can maintain speed and efficiency.

Keeping flaps in position until landing, setting them to the takeoff position, or adjusting them according to speed does not align with the standard procedure after executing the slow flight maneuver. Each of these options could negatively impact the aircraft's performance and handling characteristics as it re-enters normal flight conditions.
