Whenever I start to takeoff, no matter what plane I'm in, it pulls to the
right. Sometimes it will go straight for a few seconds then jerk over to
the right. Sometimes it will start going right from the beginning, slowly
and steadily. Sometimes it will go straight, jerk right, go straight
again, jerk right again.
And sometimes, moving my joystick to the left doesn't help much.
Why is this? Thanks.
Is it a propeller driven aircraft? If so, you are probably experiencing
prop-torque. The propeller will tend to yaw the aircraft to the right.
This tendency gets more severe with the RPM of the engine.

I know it's normal on single-prop aircraft, but this is happening in the
A-10, T-38, etc.
