  • A
    needle to the left, ball to the left
  • B
    needle to the left, ball to the right
  • C
    needle in the middle, ball to the right
  • D

Refer to figure.
On the ground, you will steer the aircraft with your rudder pedals, and you will apply an ‘excessive’ rudder in relation to a coordinated turn. Therefore, the ball will be all the way to the right, skidding out of the turn, and the needle will indicate the correct direction of the turn to the left.
