slip or skid?

DOH!

Looks like I had everything backwards. Just disregard me post.

Outside=Skid
Inside=Slip

Fascinating thread. How about just telling the student he needs right rudder to counter torque, p-factor, gyroscopic effects, etc? Do you really need to bring slip/skid into needing right rudder in the climb? To me, it is easier to visualize slips/skids when discussing turns. I'm thinking you don't need to go into that much detail, which will probably just confuse the student at this point.

It's one of those students that asked the question, slip or skid and expects the correct answer from his instructor. The rest of the students are content with simply being told to step on the ball but on occassion one walks throught the door who is to intelligent for his own good!
