Title: Deflection of stabilizers
Post by: airbumba on September 23, 2003, 01:12:49 AM

Hi all:
Me and my pal are in quite a tangle over a question concerning the deflection of the vertical stabilizer, we haven't come to fisticuffs yet, but it is getting heated.

Cessnas have a slight deflection of the stabilizer to counter the ratation of the airscrew, the question is did Spits and other fighters also have that deflection?

Thank you in advance.
