When thinking of ways to display your mastery of flight, most of us dream about buttery-smooth landings, or maybe maneuvers flown so precisely that the altimeter needles might as well have been just painted on. For that matter, we’re not all flying around with toe brakes. danced on the tip of my tongue as we rolled out.

Brief that you will use the right rudder to align the aircraft straight with the runway and the left aileron to counteract drift. But this can be hard to judge when the altimeter is so sensitive. This is because only one engine produces thrust. You will either carry out the side-slip or de-crab technique. Good question.
