Ah, yes, of course, thanks - that does make sense! But how does that work with just yaw? Keeping straight and level wings by correcting with ailerons, are you actually "over correcting" and producing a resultant thrust that goes straight forward?

To be fair, I've not brought this up with the instructors yet, I think they get a bit worried when I say angle of attack at this stage in my training, I'm not sure I'm "meant" to know that yet I'll mention it tomorrow morning, assuming weather holds!
