Springtime for Zeon (Woggy Mk II) on Nostr: Of course nobody mentions the history of the term, it’s far too cool and ...
Of course nobody mentions the history of the term, it’s far too cool and politically unpalatable today, but to my memory the guy literally saw the rhythm of the wag and thought
“damn…..just like those cute blonde girls roller skating around the Netherlands, one cheek lifts, the other descends…..just lovely.
How about we call this something besides ‘classically damped oscillation/yaw’ and something with a bit more spice, like…..uh…dutch roll? Tell them it’s something to do with sports or something. Not buttcheeks.”
I think this is where the term “dutch roll” originated, because some flight tester was ogling asscheeks in europe and the plane’s oscillations gave him a chance to coin a term
