  2. Slip (aerodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_(aerodynamics)

    The forward slip changes the heading of the aircraft away from the down wing, while retaining the original track (flight path over the ground) of the aircraft. To execute a forward slip, the pilot banks into the wind and applies opposing rudder (e.g., right aileron + left rudder) in order to keep moving towards the target. If you were the ...

  3. Turn and slip indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turn_and_slip_indicator

    One indicates the rate of turn, or the rate of change in the aircraft's heading; the other part indicates whether the aircraft is in coordinated flight, showing the slip or skid of the turn. The slip indicator is actually an inclinometer that at rest displays the angle of the aircraft's transverse axis with respect to horizontal, and in motion ...

  4. Deflected slipstream - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deflected_slipstream

    Deflected slipstream is an approach to creating an aircraft that can take off and land vertically (), or at least with a very short runway ().The basic principle is to deflect the slipstream from one or more propellers approximately 90 degrees, to create an upward thrust for vertical takeoff and a downward air cushion for landing.

  5. Skid (aerodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skid_(aerodynamics)

    In the slip, the raised wing — the left one if the airplane is turning to the right — will stall before the lowered one, and the airplane will reduce the bank angle, which prevents the stall. In the skid, the lowered wing will stall before the raised one, and the airplane will tighten the turn, and the stall can develop to a spin .

  6. Aircraft flight dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_flight_dynamics

    Side force due to side slip (in absence of yaw). Sideslip generates a sideforce from the fin and the fuselage. In addition, if the wing has dihedral, side slip at a positive roll angle increases incidence on the starboard wing and reduces it on the port side, resulting in a net force component directly opposite to the sideslip direction.

  9. Yaw string - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaw_string

    The yaw string, also known as a slip string, is a simple device for indicating a slip or skid in an aircraft in flight. It performs the same function as the slip-skid indicator ball, but is more sensitive, and does not require the pilot to look down at the instrument panel. [ 1 ]
