poor lateral control on a slow tow?

wrote: L=W only in level flight. Wrong.  The correct term is L=W in STRAIGHT flight. If both forces are not equal, the resulting flightpath is going to be a circular arc. It's simple vector addition. Regards Andreas

Also best to consider L+W+T+D=0 (Unaccelerated flight, climb, level or gliding) Once we have acceleration (change is velocity and or change in speed) then L+W+T+D do not =0 We now have "unbalanced" force(s) Cookie
