When your aeroplane is banked is it normally side slipping, skidding, or in a balanced turn? What's the normal, everyday situation? So if someone asks about angle of attack during a bank do you think it's sensible to assume, given that he's not mentioned slipping or skidding, that we are talking about a steady state, balanced turn.

What question do you think the op was asking?
