[NSRCA-discussion] Weather Vane

[Ken Thompson]

Jim and all,

Most of us realize the plane will do as you and others have described, my 
only point in questioning this is...is it called "weathervaning" while it's 
in the air, or is it called "wind induced yaw or crab"?

Best to you in your recovery.

Ken
