Open or concealed?
If a concealed firearm (with LTCF) accidentally or inadvertently becomes visible, is it considered an "open carry" in PA ?

Concealed is concealed. It doesn't matter if it does become visible, as open carry is legal with or without a licence.
The last thing I want to do is hurt you... but believe me, it's on the damned list.

Re: Open or concealed?
There is no such thing as "open carry" under law. There is just carry, and concealed carry. Concealed Carry requires a LTCF. So if you were carrying and it inadvertently became concealed you would need a LTCF. If you were Concealed Carrying, which requires a LTCF, and it became visible, it means nothing legally. A visible weapon is not even RAS for a stop in PA (outside of Philadelphia where a LTCF is required for all carry.). The only time a Concealed Carried weapon being visible would have any legal implications would be while visiting a State Park, which requires Concealed Carry unless certain exceptions are met.

I wouldn't agree that a visible weapon even in Philly is grounds for a stop. What is the RAS that the person doesn't have a license?
