Not so fortunate in propeller driven general aviation aircraft...
in turns, the pilot must use the rudder controls to keep the a/c
from yawing.

Bob, since you're an experienced pilot, can you explain (preferably
with an example) what exactly are the various elements of a flight
plan? Of the stuff I got to see and learn on that flying trip, the
flight plan was the one thing that was just not intuitive at all, and
appeared awfully complex to comprehend. Not wanting to lose out
precious time on one particular aspect, I left it at that.
Also, it totally escaped my attention to ask the pilots what exactly
is vertical damping. John Denker's otherwise excellent material didn't
do much to explain vertical damping easily enough...
Thanks in advance,
