	Rudder - Yaw
		The rudder is the small moving section at the rear of the stabilizer that is attached to the fixed sections by hinges.
		Because the rudder moves, it varies the amount of force generated by the tail surface and is used to generate and control the yawing motion of the aircraft.
		The rudder input insures that the aircraft is properly aligned to the curved flight path during the maneuver.

		Rudders and compasses thus seem to have reached Europe at about the same time, which is hardly surprising, since they were so closely associated.
		But a slung axial rudder may clearly be seen.
		Until that time, a coal-fired torpedo boat traveling at 30 knots was unable to turn its rudder at speed.

	Did Rudder Motions Snap Off A300 Fin? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The large rudder deflections and sideslip angles indicated by the FDR are the combination of conditions that may overload the fin.
		The cases of applying rudder against the slip are shown as conditions X and Y. Condition X is a rudder reversal in a steady sideslip, and Y is a reversal timed when sideslip reaches peak overswing, and gives the highest loads.
		Because of the rudder deflections shown, this chart is valid only for one speed, and the actual critical load could occur at another speed; for example, a lower speed with a larger deflection.

	Rudder Care
		The near neutral buoyancy of your rudder helps the performance of your boat by reducing the total weight, as well as reducing the moment of inertia in the stern.
		When you paint your rudder for the first time, particular attention should be paid to the paint manufacturer's instructions for preparing the surface.
		If the rudder is painted a dark color it should be shielded from the sun with a white wrapping whenever the boat is out of the water.

	Rudder Repair (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		A typical spade rudder for sailboats is made up of two fiberglass skins that define the shape of the rudder, a metal mandrel that is an extension of the rudder post, and foam core which bridges the space between the skins and mandrel.
		In order for a rudder like this to work properly, its fiberglass skins must be attached to the core and the core must be attached to the metal mandrel.
		As a rudder ages and additional fatigue cycles accumulate, stress cracks may develop in the fiberglass laminate around the rudder post at the top of the rudder.

	Technique - June 2006 Sea Kayaker Magazine
		Because the high stern rudder relies on rotating the paddle shaft rather than sweeping it back and forth, it is dramatically more effective in turning the kayak away from the paddle side.
		The high stern rudder is also more efficient in turning the kayak toward the paddle side because less drag is created by the paddle blade in the water.
		In the high stern rudder, the shaft angle is closer to that of a draw stroke.

		When the ship is on a straight course, the rudder is in line with the vessel; if the rudder is turned to one side or the other it offers sufficient resistance to the water to deflect the stern, thus changing the direction of the ship.
		Vikings placed the rudder not directly on the stern but on the right side near it; thus the term starboard (steerboard) is used for the right side of a vessel.
		the stern rudder had generally replaced the side rudder, and in the latter half of the 19th cent.

		The rudder is a panel at the rear of a jet's tail that allows the pilot to move the nose right or left.
		The design of the rudder system, which is controlled by pedals in the cockpit, may also be a factor.
		The jet's rudder places enormous stress on the tail if the rudder moves sharply in one direction and then rapidly back the opposite way, according to Mark Drella, an aerodynamics professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

	Rudder Design (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		To stop this from happening, the rudder must generate enough lift to hold the stern to windward and keep the yacht moving on a straight course.
		The hydrodynamic behavior of the rudder as it travels through water is similar to that of the keel.
		The rudder sits in the outflow of the keel and is called upon to provide lift at very small angles of attack and not stall when required to prevent a broach at high angles of attack.

		The rudder is a movable panel at the rear of the jet's 27-foot-tall tail fin.
		But others suspect that the rudder system on the A300-600 — which moves with less pressure from the pilot than any other large jet — was at least partly to blame.
		The scientist hired by the NTSB, Ronald Hess, writes in his report that the Airbus accident is "consistent" with a rare phenomenon in which a pilot essentially loses control of a plane because he or she is tricked by the controls.

	Rudder Manual
		The Feathercraft rudder is among the strongest available but the blade could be bent or broken if it is down when the kayak broaches sideways in surf or it hits the beach.
		Rudders are most likely to fail at a critical time, such as during a rough crossing when they are under greater than normal stress.
		With the rudder system the tether around the back of the seat holds the seat from sliding to the rear when you are pushing on the rudder pedals.

	Rudder
		The certified class molds produce a standard rudder fairing now that is a one-half inch radius evenly from the keel bottom to the hilt.
		Then, holding the rudder snug in the fairing and snug at the hilt to the hull, tape the extended depressors to the keel.
		The rudder is then removed and the area where the cap screw will be tightened onto the shaft is filed flat with a needle file and at a right angle to the rudder blade.

	Rudder (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The rudder is one of three primary flight control surfaces found on an airplane.
		The rudder controls movement of the airplane about its vertical axis and causes the airplane's nose to move to the right or left and point in a different direction.
		Pushing down the right rudder pedal moves the rudder to the right and causes the plane to turn to the right.

		This is the ability to control the rudder of the sailplane independent of the ailerons by using the left stick.
		This is due to the fact that the adverse yaw produced by the ailerons increases as both the coefficient of lift of the wing, and the deflection of the ailerons, are increased.
		This time assume that left rudder is being fed in with the left stick while the ailerons and mixed rudder are being applied with the right stick.

		The original mahogany rudder was in surprisingly good shape, except for a small chunk that was broken away from the very bottom edge.
		I had to spread the straps a little to get them to allow the rudder to pull out, but it was then easy to lift the rudder the 1" or 1-1/2" necessary to free the pintles from the gudgeons.
		Because of the curve of the rudder, there was no way to clamp against itself, so I screwed the rudder to the bench through the pintle boltholes, and clamped against the opposite side of the bench.

	Section 7 - Rudder
		The rudder horn forced the body of the squeezer to sit at an angle which wouldn't allow it to press straight down on the rivet.
		Original thought was to simply drill the holes while the rudder was laying on the table, but in order to keep as much of the aluminum shavings out of the internal part of the rudder I decided to stand it up and tilt it towards me while I drilled.
		So, I laid down the rudder with the counterweight on the floor, and per the plans, inserted a drill bit through the mounting holes and tapped it with a hammer to mark the location of the holes on the back side of the skin.

	So... Whats this rudder for?
		Rudder also used to yaw the aircraft straight before touchdown when landing in crosswind.
		As far as the video that was posted, that is a very good example of crosswind landing techniques, the only difference is at the last minute you use the rudder to yaw the plane to lineup with the runway.
		Rudder application is an integral part of properly controlling an aircraft.
