I really recommend testing this: watch slack come out with 10 degress bank toward vs. away from the towplane. The difference is amazing. John Cochrane That's a really excellent point. Probably, experienced pilots do this whether we realize it or not. I've never read it or heard it discussed though. Good'on'ya'. - T8 |
