....but if the wing has any significant dihedral, the 'upwind' wing will be
flying at a higher angle of attack than the 'downwind' wing, causing a roll
towards the downwind wing. The 'downwind' wing inboard section will also be
partially blanked by the fuselage which will also produce asymmetrical lift
on the wing.

When the rudder is applied, a skid and a turn follow. The skid is
of no
consequence, but any turn rate at all is of great consequence, since
tht makes the outside wing fly faster, creating more lift, and a bank
is the result; a two-stage event where succession is important.




Not true.

All the evidence you need to the contrary can be supplied by simply yawing
the airplane while holding opposite aileron, thus inducing a skid, and
then
neutralising the ailerons.

the airplane will roll left and nothing to do with the differntial speed
of
the wing, because there won;t be any!
