aileron

You're right, I was thinking of an aileron roll.

Since most of the weight of the car is on the back wheels, do it really need an aileron?

This caused the plane's aileron to lock during certain maneuvers killing some pilots.

Were you thinking of an aileron roll?I mean, if a 707 could do it safely in 1955[1] modern airliners should do just fine.

Actually I have no idea about the aileron's use in turning at high speed - i would have thought they were, just more subtly?

The general public is not ready to harness magic in the form of throttle, elevator, aileron, and rudder.

Even Curtiss' own aileron patent was invalidated because the Wright patent was prior art.

Right, but it's a reference to the game, where Peppy says, "Do a barrel roll", but the actual maneuver that you can perform is a very fast aileron roll.

In general yes, but the 777 and 787 have a system to automatically move the inboard aileron to reduce the impact of turbulence.

The law states:>it must be possible to produce and to correct roll and yaw by unreversed use of the aileron and rudder controls, up to the time the airplane is stalled.

I don't have a 777/787 type rating but nearly all large fly by wire jets have a system that automatically manages aileron movement inboard vs outboard and things like roll spoilers depending on airspeed.

Specifically, the guidance advised pilots to counter unwanted roll tendencies from a malfunctioning rudder with the application of up to full aileron control inputs.

If they had, they'd still have mechanical pivots and so forth that can wear, but the article specifically mentions pulleys and cables:> The team also inspected flight control pulleys and cables, which are routed through the wings to the systems bay, as well as the aileron trays on the outboard portion of each wing.
