WRT John W's post. He's just risen 'another' notch in my
view when he corrected himself wrt the yaw damper providing
assistance in turns.

BTW, I watched from the jumpseat this morning on the approach into ICN (Incheon,
Korea). The yaw damper didn't do too good a job of coordinating turns -- saw a
consistent half-ball slip in the turns after established in the angle of bank.
Ball went back to center when wings were level.


But the slip may have been larger had the yaw damper been turned
off?...(IOW maybe it 'helped'?)
