Mike you misunderstand my point - why use a combination of yaw and lateral cyclic when simple forward cyclic will do the job just as well if not better?
People have got hung up on the 'magic' of this technique and, to be fair, it has been sold well with the glossy videos. If he just used the same amount of power and pushed the cyclic forward instead of laterally, he would fly out just as easily because it is IVRS and not VRS.
People can believe what they want but my concern over the publicity this 'technique' has gained, is that people might really think they can mishandle the aircraft sufficiently to get into VRS in the misguided belief that the Vuichard technique will guarantee recovery in 50'.
Just avoid the conditions in the first place.
