My usual tact is quite simple...'you dont get something for nothing in aviation - more lift - more drag.'

Well thats the one liner anyway - obviously then follows a more detailed explaination - the context is normally Ex 9 medium turns and a talk about adverse yaw caused by aileron drag - and this also lends itself to the concepts of differential ailerons etc...

Hope this helps,
FF
