Yes. The sideslip angle is called "beta", and several coefficients are affected by it (these are from the default C172p): CDbeta: drag due to beta CYb: side force due to beta Clb: roll moment due to beta Cnb: yaw moment due to beta Since JSBSim uses runtime configuration files, you can add as many more beta-dependent coefficients as you want.
