The pilot is giving full left rudder becasue they are turning to the right. All the control inputs look correct, even though at this stage the pilot is merely a passenger.

"Last time I landed here I was flying the yellow cub with the big 'C' on the vertical fin....HEY! There it is!" :)

A visitor from United States posted Thu February 12, 2009:
This photo is an excellent example of a pilot attempting to control yaw with the ailerons rather than the rudder and using the wrong rudder pedal input to boot!

A visitor from United States posted Thu December 11, 2008:
The picture really shows the power of the groundloop. The force on the left wheel, the full left rudder, and the left wing keeping the aircraft from rolling over is excruciating to watch. The action seems faster in a still photograph then it probably was in real life.

A visitor from Netherlands posted Sun November 16, 2008:
Full of action this picture dynamic!!

A visitor from - posted Mon May 12, 2008:
Excellent capture! Perfect timing. It's interesting to note the left deflection on the rudder. That surely wouldn't be helping.

A visitor from United States posted Thu January 3, 2008:
A cool and a Joyful plane, looks like it's having a merry time in the Air field..
