yaw
- Definição1
- (aircraft flight condition). A flight condition of an aircraft in which the aircraft rotates about its vertical axis. Yawing is not the same as turning, because an aircraft can be yawed and continue in straight flight with the wind striking it from the side. When an airplane is turned, it follows a curved flight path, with the wind always flowing parallel to its longitudinal axis.

- Contexto
- The minimum control speed is such that, when any one engine is made inoperative at that speed, it is possible to recover control of the aeroplane with the one engine still inoperative and to maintain the aeroplane in straight flight at that speed either with zero yaw or with a bank not in excess of 5 degrees.
