Re: Sideslip
A sideslip is an important part of the repertoire of flight maneuvers for flying the DA20. Very useful when landing with crosswinds.

Re: Sideslip
Just make sure the wing is down in the direction of turn, which is a slip. If the wing is down away from the direction of the turn, that is a skid.. If you were to stall in a slip the airplane will go back towards wings level.. if you stall in a skid, you will flip upside down! The plane will roll in the direction of the rudder that you have input
