@DeadlyInertia Looks to me as if they're just transitioning from takeoff thrust to climb thrust, cleaning up the flaps, and at the same time transitioning from initial climb out speed to 250 knots, hence slowing the climb rate to gain airspeed. I could be wrong though.
@MrShelt32 They didn't! We diverted from Dallas due to thunderstorms and we were running out of fuel so we came to OKC. There were a lot of American Airlines planes at OKC too all were diverts!

@MrShelt32 A320 flies into OKC on occasion because the Thunder use it for charter.

When did they start using a320 in Okc?

Why did they hold altitude? Maybe an ATC instruction? Amazing video never the less.

@DeadlyInertia Where did you see them holding altitude?

@DVA8452 They hold altitude after the cutback, powerback operation.
