What is a side slide in aviation?


assistant
It is a technique used to compensate for a crosswind.  It is used primarily during takeoff and landing.  It is first established by lowering the upwind wing using aileron by moving the yoke or stick in the direction of the wind.  Then apply enough rudder to keep from turning.
