Visual coordination of turns revisited

This is an interesting question. My first guess is you would have to have a
massively uncoordinated turn to detect it by looking out the window. If you
have rudders in your sim, try a turn with the rudder almost full left. Then
try it with the rudder full right. The only thing I can think of showing up
in the visuals would be a turn rate either more or less than it should be
based on the bank angle.

Give it a try and tell us if you can tell on your sim.

Consider boundary conditions. A slip, for example, could be
considered to be a turn so uncoordinated that there is no turn -- what
you see out the front window just goes by sideways.
