I'm a 200-hour private pilot and was wondering about
torque and P-factor effects in high-powered aircraft, especially warbirds. From what I've read they could be significant, especially during takeoff and landing, and were a major reason for operational write-offs. Narrow-track gear were especially vulnerable. With my most robust flying being in a 182 about the only experience with P-factor was with a little pull to the left on takeoff. -- -- Marten Kemp (Fix ISP to reply) |
