| Slips are slips no matter where you are and slips, while

| This is one of those aeronautical "discussions" that can go on
| forever
| without a clear winner or loser, unless you can agree on who's
| definition you wish to accept. For very basic piloting questions like
| this, I keep an old copy of "Stick and Rudder" on the shelf. I found
| it interesting that Wolfgang apparently found no need to make a
| distinction; regardless if done for glidepath control or landing in a
| crosswind, he calls them both "sideslips".

| Mmm, cept Stefan the cheese nazi has no intention of discussing anythign.
