[NSRCA-discussion] Rudder

Hi Bob,

The airplane should weathervane into the wind, as long as the track of the
plane is straight (track- actual line/path of the plane).

Regards,
Jason

  Some great ideas.
  I'm going to give the 60-70% rudder expo a shot and see how it works.

  I'd like to do the stall turns on low rate, as Jason reccommends, but when
stall turning into the wind my practice airplane will not go vertical (on
the downline) unless I have high rates (it weathervanes slightly towards the
wind).

  I also liked John Pavlick's recommendation on the two consecutive rolls.
I'm probably being too anal in coordinating rudder, aileron and elevator
because I always seem to run out of room.

  So much to learn and the damn winter is coming!

  Thanks guys,

  Bob Wilson
