From what little I know, a good deal of prop aircraft need rudder input into the turn to stop the tail from dragging, in some WWI aircraft they had to lead into the turn with rudder, adverse yaw from lowered aileron on the outside wing trying to stall caused this problem and early on they didn't use aileron differential to counter it so often the rudder was the primary contol for turning the aircraft. I wonder also if jets would be different due to the fact that the thrust is coming from the rear of the airframe and effectively pushing the tail through the turn as against the tail being dragged by the prop up front, similar to a rear wheel drive cars tendency to power on over steer as against a front drivers power on understeer?

All of the above could be BS of course my memory is like a sieve at the moment but interesting topic!

Cheers
Craig
