Several years ago, I was told that the US signals for slow down and speed
up are not the same as used in Europe.
Can any European friends confirm or deny this?
In USA, Slow Down is yaw
Speed Up is Rock wings
Thanks,

Presuming ground launching, most operations I'm aware of no longer
rock wings for speed up, but simply lower the nose. The tail wag, or
yaw, is still used for slow down.

In Denmark, it's exactly the opposite...
Yaw/Rudder for speed up, Roll/Ailerons for slow down and they are the
same in Germany as far as I know.
