Hi Everybody.
Does a Submarine bank like an airplane while going into a left or right turn?
I am currently working on an action film about a submarine. The inside has been rebuild on a stage and all actors have to lean in in all kinds of directions in order to indicate the submarine moves. In one of the scenes, the captain orders the boat to turn right. Consequently the helms man turns the rudder to the right. If the Sub banks like an airplane, would the crewmembers facing forward lean to the left, to steady themselves vertically? If they lean to the right, would that indicate a left turn?
Thanks you very much in advance.
