I have to agree with Pete on this one. I am an
American and his
definitions are correct. Slew also used as a term of flight orientation
in Aircraft is all I can add.
Interesting! Will you provide a sample for illustration?
I'd be interested. I know pitch, roll and yaw. Though the slew rate for
C150 ailerons is a slow 6 degrees/sec. ;)
I don't remember slew, but a slip is when you turn the plane slightly
sideways to the path of motion, often to slow it down or account for
crosswinds in a landing. Don't forget to point it straight before touchdown
though, or it gets "interesting".
