Greeting Greg:(We received your email about removing your previous message, but I see you replied already.)
Thanks for the insights. I'm not very clear on the knife edge comments. When you refer to pitch, it sounds like you're talking about "pitch" in relation to the horizon. My original question is whether rudder application affects pitch (on the aircraft's horizontal axis). It seems to me that rudder application should produce some pitch movement (if we follow what happens with aileron adverse yaw). However, I believe that lift generation and aircraft design have a much greater influence on this theoretical behavior. I suspect the only way to know for sure is to put an airplane in a dive straight down at a constant speed and apply rudder and note what happens.
Thanks!
Ben
