Scott,
Not having been in an aircraft boat-turn before, I find your example a
wee addling. The kids would get hurled across the seats because the
station wagon is trying to turn horizontally about its axis while being
restricted in its lateral movement by the tires that are grounded. In
an aircraft, there's just thin air outside, so I'd presume it'll mildly
keep sliding sidewards too (in the opposite direction) while turning
about its axis. It might just feel like in a briskish whirligig.
Or does it?
