Agreed.
More bank applied results in less yaw needed from the flight mechanics point of view, the automatic consequence of which being a reduced rudder drag.
Surely the 5 deg mark is a good one not too exceed though.
Hello doubleu anker
Point taken regarding the lift disruption.
However I'm not sure I'm with you about the cross control scenario thing though. In the context of a flame out, pilot's inputs on both bank and yaw axis are towards the live engine aren't they. Then how would the "cross" notion apply here ?
Cheers
