Don't get your panties in a bunch there Sensei. It doesn't take a hotshot pilot to know that applying rudder makes a plane yaw, and keeping the rudder deflected makes it keep yawing unless you do something to stop it. "I'm a better pilot than you, so everything you say is wrong" is not a persuasive argument. If memory serves, you once posted a comment saying that you handle a crosswind by dropping the wing on the downwind side and applying opposite rudder. Is thaat right, or do you have one of those magic rudders that cancels out a crosswind without doing anything else?
