Does anyone know the answer to this question, it's in the gouge - and everyone in the gouges is putting a different correct answer, thanks.
"If you hold a constant Mach during climb-out, what happens to TAS, IAS, and AOA as you approach your level-off altitude?"
All 3 decrease?

TAS increases with altitude, IAS decreases, AOA will likely need to increase due to the decrease in IAS.
Maybe the wording of the question is why people keep giving up different answers. I could see how one could read that, and assume the question is referring to the entire climb, level off, cruise process.
I see it as just "In a constant mach climb, what will you observe about TAS, IAS, and AOA as you climb to high altitude?"

No, not all 3 in my opinion. Think back to the definitions and reasons for either increasing or decreasing values of all 3 of those terms indiviually.
TAS increases with altitude, IAS decreases, AOA will likely need to increase due to the decrease in IAS.

TAS and IAS decrease while AoA increases.

I think CubDriver's answer is correct here:

TAS and IAS decrease while AoA increases.

TAS and IAS decrease while AoA increases.

TAS increases with altitude. That's part of the reason we fly so high. Watch the TAS as you climb at .75- it increases
