There was a thread recently about side slips/forward slips
http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthr...ward+slip+side
I flew recently with a PPL who had 140hrs and had never side slipped (i.e. for xwind landing). Unfortunately on that day there was a strong xwind and lets just say an interesting landing.
My strongest leg usually determines which way the aircraft slips
Ironically I was told that my PPL examiner would fail me if I used a forward slip on the PFL
