realize this is my opinion,

just don't use the wing low method, it looks so sloppy, crab/decrab is the professional [looking] way and most of the time you can handle more of a component. and it is a natural attitude for a plane to assume---it's not something that you hold or force . it just doesn't look right to have a jet in a sideslip. and don't kick the crab--- push it out.

besides it give you an excuse to explain why planes "fly sideways"
