When taxiing with a left quartering tailwind, which control adjustment is needed?

When taxiing with a left quartering tailwind, the aircraft will tend to weather vane into the wind, which means the tail will move to the right and the nose will move to the left. In this situation, to maintain directional control, you need to counteract the turning motion caused by the wind.

Moving the aileron fully to the right helps to lower the left wing, which is the wing that is more affected by the wind. This adjustment increases the lift on the right wing, stabilizing the aircraft against the wind's force. Pushing the control wheel forward is necessary because it maintains a level attitude of the aircraft and helps prevent the nose from rising, which could lead to an unwanted increase in lifting forces that could exacerbate the wind's effect.

This combination of actions is crucial for maintaining control during taxi operations in windy conditions, ensuring that the aircraft remains aligned with the runway and is manageable under the influence of the tailwind.
