Do you really mean that?



Yup.

Bank is controlled by ailerons.

The angle of attack (which results in stalls) is controlled by the elevators
which don't cause the aircraft to bank.

No yank, no change in stall speed. If you do pull, you will increase the
stall speed - banked or not.

How do you do a snap roll? (flick roll if you are on the East side of teh
Atlantic)
