Remember that great scene in "Breaking The Sound Barrier" when the "hero" takes his wife on a trip from England to Egypt in a two seat Vamp? Beautiful black and white photography in that picture. Hope you get to fly it. Nearest thing I can relate to that I've flown would be the Canadair Tutor. I flew the Snowbirds #10 as a guest of the team at one time. Great little airplane and very easy to fly. I'm sure you won't have the slightest problem with the Vampire if they ever get it running. D -- Dudley Henriques |

wrote in news:1192935582.999886.201640 @t8g2000prg.googlegroups.com: In addition to what others have said, another interesting question to ponder is why the airplane yaws when you bank. The yaw is induced by the ailerons, so the only time you need to apply rudder is when you are changing your bank angle with the ailerons. On the side where the aileron is down, the wing has more lift, and more drag. On the other side, the lift is spoiled and there is less drag. The draggy wing yaws backwards, requiring opposite rudder. that's adverse yaw. I beleive he meant why does the airplane yaw in the same direction (eventually) as the direction of roll? Bertie - Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Bertie, I assumed that adverse yaw was what he was asking about since it is the most pronounced effect. To answer the question the other way: The reason for rudder use in a sustained bank is due to the fact that the airspeed of the outside wing is slightly higher than the airspeed of the inside wing due to the difference in arc-distance that each wing is traveling in a turn. The outside wing has a little more drag due to the higher airspeed and a little bit of rudder is required to compensate. Dean |
