I don't follow how the right engine being out means left turns. Seems like you'd have extra thrust on the left side and you'd want to make right turns. They wanted to keep the right engine high? I'm not sure what I missed.
- xvf22 6y agoWhen turning into the dead engine, there’s a tendency to overbank as the plane will yaw towards the inoperative engine.

- waiseristy 6y agoThat's exactly the problem, turning too heavily into the side of the dead engine can introduce a situation where it's impossible to pull out of that turn.
