If it is not gyroscopic precession is it aerodynamic precession?
The reason I asked is that in past postings I referenced gyroscopic precession and got jumped by guys from the UK and OZ with them telling me there is no such thing as gyroscopic precession. They insisted it was aerodynamic precession. Now settle the argument. (Which witch is which?). In reference to your posting above you reference the dynamics involved. Are these functions related to gyroscopic or aerodynamic precession or is precession even involved?


If it is not an apple, is it an orange? Pear?
So, which is it?
