Thanks. While we are on the subject, I am being taught to use a viscious side slip at >80Kn to direct the fire away from the aircraft (ie if the fire is on the left, apply left rudder plus right aileron) and to loose height fast. This makes sense to me and is a lot of fun to practice, but it is not mentioned in the POH or anywhere else that I have looked. Any comments? Can I realistically expect to see on which side a fire is seated?
