What is the proper procedure to turn using rudder pedals in conjunction with using the ailerons? Is up elevator also employed in the process as I turn?
Would a tutorial within Microsoft's Flight Sim be useful to employ with Aces High? I remember one of my Microsoft Flight Sims had actual people tutors to walk me through the basics of learning to fly; think it was the 2002 package.
I’m a CFI with over 25 years of teaching new students , what the pedals are for. Yes, any tutorial including Microsoft’s on the use of the aircraft controls, elevator, ailerons , and rudder and how they are responsible for flight control (the four fundamentals) would be helpful.
To understand why the rudder, find out about
1). Adverse aileron yaw.
2). PFactor
3). Gyroscopic precession
4). Yaw
5). Slip
When asked the question, what makes an airplane turn, remember to answer; “Roll & Lift”, it is not the rudder . Yes, you can if you have enough time, force a change in direction of flight if you stand on the rudder long enough it will turn, but that is not what the rudder is for. From within the aircraft, it is basically used to keep the ball centered.
Hope this helps
