Steep Turn wing drops
Probably an easy question, but why when stalling an aircraft in a steep turn, would you have a wing drop towards the top wing instead of the bottom wing?
My reasoning says it should be the inside wing that stalls first, due to holding off bank with aileron.
Any good explanations out there??
One text book I have glossed over it by saying "Either wing may drop regardless of the direction of turn, but generally a slight sideslip angle predominates just prior to the stall, causing yaw opposite to the direction of turn, and this leads to the higher wing stalling first." (Flight Instructors Manual, R.D. Campbell)
I can't quite grasp that for as far as I know the inherent directional stability of the aircraft would cause a yaw in the direction of the turn, due to sideslip, not in the opposite direction.
