In this video I explain slips, skids and spins associated with flying airplanes. More specifically, I talk about the usefulness and benefits of slips, the dangers of skids, and finally, how skidding turns can lead to deadly spins. In regards to slips, I discuss side slips and forward slips, where the former is used for making crosswind landings and the latter for loosing altitude quickly and safely. I also discuss how skidding turns, particularly when done on base to final turns, can lead to deadly stall spin accidents. And most importantly I talk about how to avoid getting in a stall, spin situation.
