| |
| | Of course they have different references... visual references,
| that
| | is: In one, you look straight ahead, in the other, you look

| |
| | 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 ˇ§conventionalˇ¨
| | 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.
| |
| | LL says to me, let's slip this baby home. Taje the center stick."
| |
| | Uh, like first of all, I'm not LHanded. Then I find the rudder
| pedals.
| | lol
| |
| | 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 ˇ§feelˇ¨ for the rudder position.
| | Transferring this habit to the Velocity invites a common mistake ˇV
| | 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?

| Let us know when, so we can hide in our bunkers.
