So I've come across a few different ways to approach keeping a plane on the center line while on final approach.
1. Use aileron to do all of the steering, and rudder to merely stay coordinated.
2. Use rudder to maintain runway heading, and if you find yourself too far to one side, use aileron to slip back to the extended center line.
3. Use rudder to stay on the extended center line, as though you were taxiing down it, and use aileron merely to keep the wings level.
Is one of these techniques "correct" and the other two "incorrect"? Are different ones used at different times? Is it just a matter of pilot preference?
I'm gonna go ahead and post this as a real question.
