side-slip
Side-slip refers to the sideways movement of an aircraft, ship, or vehicle, particularly when it is drifting sideways due to wind, currents, or momentum, rather than moving in the direction it is pointed towards. It's commonly used in aviation as a method of descent without losing speed and often involves a slight yawing of the aircraft to one side.
