B-2 Bomber and its flight dynamics?

Question:

Answers:

Anyone heard of.........?

They use a split control surface. It is the outer most control surface on the wing. Instead of deflecting in one direction, it "opens up." They use differential opening of this control surface to generate drag on one side and yaw the plane.

Can you get a Private Pilot Licesne even if you have Panic Attacks?

The B-2 bomber has clamshell, split ailerons whose drag can cause the airplane to yaw. Also, differential thrust from the two engines can be used. The thrust method is prefered during stealth ops as the clamshell ailerons increase the radar profile somewhat.
