What came out of the A-300 acident was both large
transport manufacturers saying pilots should not use the rudder under

normal
operations.


So one doesn't use rudder when doing a manual turn as one does on every

other
aircraft made?


The YAW damper moves the rudder for the airplane, no human workload is
involved.

If AFCS isn't engaged one has to use rudder to control slip in a
turn. Ever heard of the expression "step on the ball?"


The only way to disable the automatic YAW damper is to pull the circuit
breaker.

Ever heard of a fugoid? This is an F-4 related question, so don't blow it.
