Yes, but the induced drag and for the lack of a better term, "single-sided-ness" of its location (at least on aircraft that have rudders that only extend above or below the fuselage) should, based on our adverse yaw example, produce some pitch change (in relation to the aircraft).

Correct again. Hmm, another question: In this situation does the elevator now produce roll-coupling when applied now that it acts as a rudder?

LOL! In a 152 you still need to open the doors or lean way over to create some roll without using the ailerons.

In insights have been time-stamped, noted, and as always greatly appreciated.
