JF's question

Flick rolls are started by.....

So flick rolls are stopped by.....


I'll have a go.

Flick rolls are started by a stalling a wing

So flick rolls are stopped by unstalling that wing


Maybe I am being too simplistic, John?

Accelerated stall - both wings stall, rudder is fed in causing the opposite wing to accelerate and therefore generate lift. The wing on the same side as the applied rudder generates no lift - so the outside wing comes over the top.
