Default RE: AMA RUDDER RULES?

ORIGINAL: Gordon Mc


I listened in on a conversation between a B2 pilot and some spectators at an airshow. The pilot was being asked about the effectiveness of the "drag rudders". He responded that they were not rudders,

Just spoke to one of the engineers that designed the bird; they call them rudders. I suspect that the pilot was just being a pilot and trying to make his job of being a meat ball servo sound more glorious.

So now that we have that straight, who is going to build one?
