Subject: What do the BM manoeuvres "mean," and what are they called?
Posted by: flying_neko - 13years 251days ago.
Message text
I would like some help on this one. I have long been wondering what the BM maneouvres "mean," how they are performed, and what their real names are. So these are my results after some research. There are certainly errors, and there are some maneouvres I couldn't make sense of, or of dubious interpretation.

Can any of the experts out there provide some help?

Stall: 1

Banked turn: 9, 10, 11, 14, 20, 21, 23, 24

The fact that the Albatros D.III only has 12 and 13 maneouvres at speed 3 makes me think that it is probably just a slip-turn, that is, performed only with the rudder. Thoughts? Same thing goes with the 25 and 26, that are the only speed-4 turns.

Sideslip: 8, 16, 17

Why are there no speed-3 sideslip manoeuvres? A (non-restricted) speed-3 equivalent of the 8 and 17, that is.

Skidding turn: 15, 22
