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? 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?" Dan, U. S. Air Force, retired |

The pilot flying keeps his feet on the rudder pedals when hand-flying the aircraft. An unsafe practice, for modern airliners. Do you have a source for this? Seems far fetched, but I don't fly airlines, |

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. |

The statistics are such today that a two man cockpit has become a statistical life saver, as a small number of Captains expire each year enroute. And the logical conclusion from that would be, since the befofementioned pitot system tendency to become clogged with mudbees is such that the elevator load feel system is an absolute guarantee for being locked into a condition wheras the pitch attitude is somewhat determined by the ratio of the lift vectors as seen from the perspective of the outflow valves. And that is a very serious condition, indeed. JK |

If you want a URL, do a google search. I did. It said effective rudder use is required for a cross-wind take-off, and to not use the tiller over about 30 knots accelerating to keep the aircraft centered. Another page talks about slip techniques. |
