| Yeah, right backpedaling boi.

| Bert, first time Little Luke took me up in his Velocity, he failed to
| inform me that the rudder system is different from ¡§conventional¡¨
| aircraft in both design and performance. In most aircraft the rudder
| pedals are interconnected. Pushing down on one rudder pedal causes a
| corresponding movement in the opposite (upward) direction of the
| other.

| Uh, like first of all, I'm not LHanded. Then I find the rudder pedals.

|
| I was quick to note that the rudder pedals in the Velocity operate
| independent from each other,what I they failed to notice is that much
| of the sensory feedback with respect to rudder deployment is ****faced
| gone. Push one rudder pedal in the Velocity and the other remains
| motionless. Cessna and Piper pilots like me learn to rest both feet on
| the rudder pedals to get a ¡§feel¡¨ for the rudder position.
| Transferring this habit to the Velocity invites a common mistake ¡V
| the unintentional deployment of one (or both!) rudder(s) in flight.
|
| I passed the slip back to Little Puker.
|
| Yes, I've heard about this feature in that type of airplane. I'm going
| to get a chance to fly a Long Eze pretty soon and I believe it works the
| same way. You can use both together as a speed brake, yes?
