"Torque steer" in aircraft is referred to as "P factor" and occurs
mostly during climb to altitude. Real torque steer is noticeable in
aircraft with a single powerful engine when initiating takeoff roll
and using a lot of power. eg, P-51 Mustang needs a lot of rudder on
takeoff with 50" manifold pressure or more.
