Eh, I get twitchy getting uncoordinated anywhere low with partial water. While a slip is considered aerodynamically coordinated, not sure water in the wings would agree.


Crabbing is coordinated. Slipping is not. By any book, stretch of the imagination, or even alternate fact. It may be aerodynaimcally "balanced", as there is no steady state pitch, roll, or yaw RATE. But, not coordinated.
