Default Re: 2008 Imac basic, how do you do #7

Airbike,

The wind correction can be done using rudder and elevator. Remember that the heading of the aircraft can be at any angle, but the flight path must remain unchanged. If you are turning from downwind to upwind, you will need to pull harder on the elevator at the apex of the turn to keep the radius constant. The bank angle however cannot change. As would be done in any other maneuver, 1 point per 10 degrees is deducted for bank angle change, and/or too shallow or too steep of a bank.
