Default RE: Whats the rudder for!!! ?

Wow! I really have opened up a can of worms havent I.

What I've taken from this is firstly:- Rudder is an important part of flying.
Secondly:- You dont nesisarily need it, but if it wasnt there you couldnt do alot of the manouvers and MAY not be able to keep "straight line" control in some conditions.
And lastly:- Everybody has different opinions on what makes somebody a good pilot!!!

Thank you all for your insights. I already started experimenting with the rudder last night. IT WAS HARD! Suprising how much that one extra control confuses things! Im sure it will improve with time though.



On the next plane front I heard a couple mentioned. Anyone else want to throw their opinion into the mix?


Thanks again,
