Funny that, but then you should take a massive pinch
of salt when you read posts about making you turns
with the rudder. If you need to side slip at all during
your downwind, base and final, best do it on the straight
parts and use proper coordinated well banked turns
between. The one thing you should always avoid getting
into is turning with excessive amounts of rudder. Why?
This is where spins develop from, because in the event
of you stalling, the likelyhood of you surviving when
low, as you would be on your base turn, or final turn
are very slim. Get into the habit of flying turns in
a coordinated manner right from the start, at all times.

I figure I'll turn with roll input, but can't picture
the side
effects from doing that.

There are no side effects of performing a correct well
banked coordinated turn.

If I know the side effects I can have a
chance of being ahead of the plane during the maneuver.

If you fly in a coordinated manner you dont have to
think ahead of the plane


Anyway, is there going to be any adverse yaw from turning
in this mode?

any aileron input will produce adverse yaw

Even if there is, I don't think I can do anything
about it,

if you were flying coordinated turns it would not be
something you have to factor in.

but enquiring minds want to know.

absolutely. problem though with this news group, which
is ment to be a gliding news group, there are to many
power pilots preaching power techniques!

The other question is if the
attitude going to change as a side effect of the roll
input. This
will be in a 2-33.

there will always be an attitude change in any turn.


Thanks
