[TheForge] Safety -- Turning Things Off

[Bob Willman]

	When I was learning to fly it was - right rudder during full power
maneuvers. I think right/left rudder depends on engine rotation and perhaps
push/pull propeller configuration. Most aircraft engines rotate the same
direction.

	Rudder?  Think of the torque reaction.  Rudder has nothing directly
to do with the torque issue AFAIK.
