rotation:
moving POSITIVE (UP) around the lateral axis, pitching UP

DE-rotation:
moving NEGATIVE (DOWN) around the lateral axis, pitching DOWN



Remind me......regarding rotation about the longitudinal axis…..banking to the left…..rotation and banking to the right de-rotation or is it the other way around. Always get that confused!

Bloody hell, rotation and de-rotation. Why is it that we as an industry insist on bafflegab again? Oh that’s right, we must keep up the pretense to the masses that we are superhuman after all.
