For the real world pilots-was wondering the other day if the precautions taken against asymetrical flap extension on smaller props (don't extend flaps unless you're wings level) apply to big jets. While I'm sure AFE is still possible, I guess I'm asking if it's okay to extend flaps while in a turn on the larger aircraft.

I've seen many a large jet extend flaps while turning so I'm assuming that they do not use such procedures.
AMD Athlon 64 3700+&&GeForce FX5200 256Mb&&1GB DDR400 DC&&Seagate 500Gb SATA-300 HDD&&Windows XP Professional X64 Edition
&&&&That's right, I'm now using an AMD! I decided to give them another try and they kicked the pants off of my P4 3.4!

Yes commercial pilots do it all the time, but I believe they do not use speed brakes after flaps 15.

lol no, AFE occurs when one flap lowers at a different speed than the other, resulting in a sudden roll. Its not pilot induced!
This can be dangerous to smaller aircraft beacuse they are more susceptible to it and if it happens in a traffic pattern at lower speeds you have a problem. Hope that clears it up.
