The answer to the ball question is no. It won't spin. A ball centered airplane in a climbing turn is compensated by rudder and is considered coordinated (in the classic sense). Ok, now I'm confused again. If "stall plus yaw" is all that's necessary, and all (normal) turns involve yaw, then why won't it spin? Do I have the wrong definition of "yaw"? Jose A "normal" turn is accomplished by splitting the lift vector, NOT by holding in yaw. Yaw should only be present in the turn dynamic during the entry into the turn and exit from the turn. Once stabilized in the turn, there should be no yaw present. There could be however if the turn was a slipping turn or a skidding turn. -- Dudley Henriques |
