Default RE: How do you teach?

Yes, but it is not a good idea to use them on takeoff. Washout is helpful during all phases of flight with most A/C, but is not always required. There is a delicate balance when working with heavy metal warbirds. Too much washout and you loose some effective lift, not enough with a mediocre pilot and you can have a stall spin waiting to happen.
