The aircraft doesnt distinguish between a forward and a side slip, so
why should the CFI?

One of my biggest pet peeves are CFIs who actually teach people to
slip a 172 with flaps.

Interesting that the only thing you picked up on was that which
supported your preconception.





Not at all, alhough it was the only thing I specifically commented on.
Its great to know the various models and the different response that
will be acheived from the different airfoils used. I should have
specifically stated "forward slips," but that gets into a whole other
conversation on CFIs who do not distinguish side slips from forward
slips in their teaching.

Sorry I wasn't specific enough.
