Hi guys;
Got a question that has me scratching my head. The new server at my favourite hangout is a commercial pilot taking a wee bit of a rest break. The other day she told me that for some reason, the right side of a Piper Navaho always receives the vast majority of the damage in a crash regardless of the angle or speed of impact. She highly recommended sitting portside if I'm ever in one. That's the first that I've ever heard of it, and neither one of us can think of a good explanation for it. Any of you aero experts have the answer? (She didn't specify any particular model year.)
