I knew that it would be dangerous answering this thread. I have been flying so long, that my feet on the rudder pedels, work to correct yaw with no obvious connection to my brain
A and C .... You are probably correct. I am confusing the centrifugal forces of the engine, with the effects of the prop, arn't I? I have only got the odd hour on radials, so no doubt you can correct me on this one.
Noggin ..... I do fly twins most weeks. On props rotating in the same direction, the thrust line of each engine is on the side of the down-going prop. On most modern USA built twins the props run clockwise, as seen from the pilots seats. So the thrust line is to the starboard of the centre line. On counter rotating props this effect is balanced out. You are now going to tell me that this does not effect yaw on the takeoff run, & you may well be right.
Now tell me what is wrong with my above load of cobblers
