Tip Tuesday: Adverse Yaw #TipTuesday #iFlySCA • Adverse yaw, a key concept in aviation, causes an unintended yawing motion during aircraft turns, where the nose doesn't follow the bank direction as expected. This occurs because the aileron on the rising wing generates more lift and drag than the one on the descending wing. Although modern aircraft use solutions like differential aileron deflection to reduce adverse yaw, its effects persist. Adverse yaw can lead to uncoordinated flight, affecting control, stability, and increasing drag. To counteract adverse yaw, pilots use a technique called aileron-rudder coordination, applying opposite rudder to the turn direction. Ongoing advancements in aircraft design, like differential aileron deflection, contribute to improving the management of adverse yaw, enhancing overall safety and performance in aviation.
