Principles #3 - Left Turning Tendencies

This lesson teaches what the four left turning tendencies are, their effects on an airplane, and how to counter them so you can take off safely and keep flying coordinated to increase your airplane's performance.
An airplane with a propeller rotating clockwise is used to demonstrate, so if your airplane's propeller rotates counter clockwise then you will experience RIGHT turning tendencies.

EXCELLENT TUTORIAL: I have seen these forces mislabeled and/or mis-explained more often than not over the last 40+ years, by novices and professionals alike. I have never seen such a concise and accurate description as the above video, and IMO anyone reading this comment should subscribe to this channel. This guy is the real deal.

OMG, this is so good. Mysterious flight behavior is now starting to make sense!

Another keeper. Concerning prop effects: Now that I know why and when they happen, I'm am better able to do the right thing at the right time. This is specially useful when I'm learning a new aircraft. Muchas garcias.

Thx, this explains a lot of some of my problems in IL-2 1946!

Taxiing I always have Dead Or Alive - you spin me right round in my ear!

Free Pilot University, Kudos!!

Your video's should be part of the game...

[@jandewezel]

This makes this game so good. In reality the bf109 was also a tricky plane in take off and landing.

Another great video, thank you for your efforts, it’s appreciated

[@hon0p]

Thanks a lot. It help me to put word on things I "knew" with experience. It's great when knowledge meet experience.

grazie del lavoro fatto

[@marekkoutny368]

Thank you, buddy!

[@madkills10]

While watching i had the thought..would you take this into account while trying to evade an enemy? say roll left in a 109 rather then right?

[@aratros2766]

didnt get precession, can someone link me something to help me understand ?

[@shannonnezul4903]

I'm pretty sure a ww2 pilot said that in a mustang the turn would be better to the right (is 109) this would be the cause of that "less ability" to turn right (already many forces requiring right input anyway?) Yes?
