I should experiment in my LS6. Lord knows that I'm tired of looking up
at the gaggle :-).

Tony V.


Tony, I've found that my LS6 prefers to thermal with several degrees
of apparent slip as indicated by the yaw string - if I try to center
the yaw string with the rudder, I have to use much more aileron to
control the bankangle and prevent overbanking.

Once established and trimmed, hands off, she will thermal on her own
just fine, maintaining that slight slip.

Pretty much agrees with what Dick Johnson wrote.
