where does weight act

hi there - am a bit confused

had a look at the notes on asymetric flight the diagrams (some) indicate that a "component of weight acts as a turning force" when a aircraft is flying with zero sideslip

can somebody please explain (thought weight always acted toward earths mass center through the center of gravity?

thanks
