The Dutch Roll - Learning to Control Adverse Yaw

Описание: A proper Dutch Roll typically has a rhythm, or more accurately a syncopated rhythm. Most pilots try to fly the Dutch Roll as a rhythm exercise. Trying to move aileron and rudder to a beat or rhythm is a big mistake. The key to a Dutch Roll is controlling yaw. It is easy to do if you know how to watch and interpret the sight picture.
