Aerodynamics on Slowflight.
Asked by: connor 2930 views Aerodynamics, Commercial Pilot, General Aviation, Private Pilot
I first would like to say thanks to Skyfox, and Brian for their help and assistance with my previous post on Spin Aerodynamics.
They were all helpful in understanding and greatly detailed.
I just wanted to verify the ideas on slow flight when we use more of rudder than aileron. So, "in a slow flight turn, for a given amount of rudder the aircraft needs much less aileron to put in the needed amount of roll, possibly even requiring opposite aileron to prevent excessive roll."
Is this because the airplane might enter into cross controlled stall and spin?
I read somewhere in the book saying that cross controlled stall involves aerodynamics of sweepback design.
