The elevators cause the aircraft to ____, that is, a nose-up or a nose-down motion. The direct result of moving the elevators is a change in the angle of attack and the attitude of the plane relative to the airflow. An aircraft achieves a turn by varying the component of the wing's lifting force. To achieve a tilt, the rear outer section of each wing is hinged. These surfaces are known as ____. The ____ causes a yawing moment (about the normal axis). The yawing moment also causes one wing to advance and one to retard. This causes a change in lift and induces a rolling moment.
