Hi,
Not sure if this is the right forum to ask but something has been bothering me recently. The IAC states for aerobatics:
Slow rolls have to be flown normally on a straight line (exception is the avalanche). The roll rate has to be constant and the longitudinal axis of the plane has to go straight.
How can you fly the aircraft along a straight line and also keep the longitudinal axis of the aircraft straight. I would have thought that the less efficient fuselage lift in the knife-edge portion of flight would necessitate a higher angle of attack to maintain 1 g lift in the vertical. Thus requiring the longitudinal axis of the airplane to be tilted. Can someone clarify this for me.
