Yaw Damper

Featured Replies

The yaw damper eliminates "Dutch roll," an unpleasant "fishtailing" or rolling and yawing movement that can occur at high altitude, particularly in swept-wing jets. The yaw damper should be off duringtakeoff and during final approach and landing.Jose Rafael NavarroYV

I could use a yawN damper right now. ;-)Final hour at work for the day.

You are mistaken, well at least in regard to a 757/767 which is always left in the ON posistion. Best Wishes,Randy J. [email protected]" A little learning is a dangerous thing"AMD XP2100 |MUNCHKIN512 DDR RAM |ECS[/b ]K7S5A MB |[b]GF364 MEG |WIN XP PRO

"The yaw damper eliminates "Dutch roll," an unpleasant "fishtailing" or rolling and yawing movement that can occur at high altitude, particularly in swept-wing jets. The yaw damper should be off duringtakeoff and during final approach and landing."Is this a quote from an aircraft ops manual, Jose? If so, for what aircraft type? This is not applicable to the 767 because of its automatic on/off switching when the aircraft touches down. Therefore it should not affect the behaviour of the real aircraft after landing. Did you say you were using a joystick with a rudder control... or rudder pedals? If so, please read page 9 of the "767 PIC Panel Operation & Systems.pdf" file. The Right Yaw Damper switch controls Microsoft's Flight Sim's auto co-ordination system. I guess you will need to switch this off when carrying out non-automatic crosswind approaches (The experts here will let you know for sure)Cheers.Ian.

I dont know what kind of aircraft... I just found that information n internetJose Rafael NavarroYV
