Roll / Yaw coupling
Tim,
You are absolutely right; roll/ yaw coupling was identified as a potential hazard. I used to give the Buccaneer aerodynamics lecture on the 237 OCU conversion course, and RYC was covered in some detail. In fact, looking at my Buccaneer MKII Aircrew Notes, Sections 14 and 15 (Aerobatics and Inertia Cross-coupling respectively), all the previous points about loops, etc are covered in depth. Although Tom's comments about why we didn't (?!) loop the Bucc are quite correct, any maneouvre that involved large control deflections at low speed / high AOA had to be treated with some respect, otherwise the spotty-faced youths could end up in trouble.
My most challenging discourse on the Buccaneer's aerodynamics was when I had to give it to the Boss of ETPS. Although he listened attentively he seemed satisfied with the explanations which was something of a relief.
