Uh, gee, Einstein, a real rudder DOES control flight path.



Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.



There is never a case where it doesn't change flight path.


Not so. When an engine fails on a multi, a lot of rudder is required.
Skillfully done, the application of a lot of rudder is mandatory to
maintain the desired flight path.


It is changing the flight path the aircraft would have taken had you
not applied the rudder.
