2ndry affect of rudder.


Secondary Affect of Yaw.


anything on the outside travels faster. If you yaw right tail goes left reducing the airflow over the right wing right wing - Left wing goes faster because it has got its original forward speed through the sir - plus - an additional forward speed relative to the right wing - momentarily - as the aircraft yaws.


As the Left wing is going faster in relation to the right wing going slower - then:


There is more Lift on the Left wing - compared to less Lift on the right wing.


The Left wing goes up and the right wing goes down - - as you are helping things along but making, letting the aircraft Yaw, as well, then the aircraft rolls to the right.


Ok, only kidding - actually - am not - come forth ye critics with yer span-wise airflow and angle of attack - fair enough then.


Listen Dudes and Duedess-esses -


Smite us as ye may for saying its not a case of the left wing going faster and the other wing going slower - but do dive in with the pickys and the numbers - don't just say its ----, get on in there - life is short, right?


In other words: show us what you mean - (or go and make some tea)


Thank you for your time.


Re: Bootfuls - Don`t bootful anything - as JT says.


It is not the Brazilian World Cup - were not scoring for England here. Don`t "bootful" anything until you have been shown by an instructor and an aerobatic instructor at that.


As J.T rightly says - an appropriate, amount of rudder is to be used in the event of a wing drop - opposite rudder to the dropping wing - opposite rudder - so that if the Right wing drops, say, IN A STALL, then one would straighten the aircraft that is level the wings - not with the aileron - not with the aileron, but with opposite rudder, not "booting it in" - that's disgusting but apply sufficient rudder, even full rudder, momentarily, momentarily to recover the dropped wing - this is at the stall (or just after the wings have stalled - if the wing has suddenly dropped during the stall)


I won`t go into it - but the reason we do that is so as NOT to use aileron - why? Well using aileron during the stall to pick up the dropped wing can further stall the dropped wing - leading to a spin. If you are trained in spinning you will recover from an incipient spin - i.e., meaning - you will be trained to recover at the pre-stage or onset of the spin before it develops I mean - you will also be able to recover from a developed spin. In reality - if you get into a fully developed spin by accident then you are naughty to fly through a cyclone or you are half asleep or you should have left her on the ground and gone out for a pizza instead . . . . ?


You will get spin training at your local flying club/school as part of your PPL training.


Some of you fly so well that you are daft enough to go and spin - all on your own - why not?


I`ve spun with a student hundreds of times. Can`t quite get myself to do it solo though - seems like an insane way to fly. Unless you are an instructor or aerobatic pilot or a test pilot or a fighter pilot.


If you are not trained in spin recovery - then go and become trained in spin recovery - it may save your life one day.


Don`t put "bootfuls of rudder in" nobody does it - they are just being silly or un-learned.
