Subject: Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: Answer to Rich's QuestionSo far we have determined that turns (in the horizontal is the matter under discussion. Turns in the vertical can also occur.):1. are caused by a horizontal component of lift.2. This lift is controlled by the elevator.3. This lift amount, or quantity, can be positive, negative, or zero.What control surface controls the direction the wings are pointed (i.e., the lift vector) in their possible range of right and left all the way from straight up to straight down and all angles between?From: GarySent: Tuesday, March 13, 2012 10:40 AMSubject: Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: Answer to Rich's Question

Subject: Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: Answer to Rich's QuestionIs it possible to control the lift the wing produces through a range from positive lift (lift in an upward direction relative to the top of the wing) to zero lift to negative lift (lift in a downward direction relative to the bottom of the wing.) by moving the elevator?From: Gary N OrpeSent: Tuesday, March 13, 2012 3:49 AMSubject: RE: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: Answer to Rich's Question

I'll buy that. I am trying to develop a method for teaching this concept to students and I need a willing participant. What I would like to try is asking a series of questions and see where it takes us. But I need a participant with an open mind and a desire to learn or if he already knows the answer, help others learn. So, if you're game I'll ask some questions. If you're not, just don't answer.
What control surface controls the amount of lift the wings produce?

I am curious. What do you believe makes airplanes turn? You do not need to mention any particular flight control in your answer if you don't wish to. If you wish to, that is fine, too.

-> Yes, try it for yourself Gary.....
-> Fly North, and then turn either Northwest or West.

not.)
