Default Right seat problems

P.S. Jay, can your sim be set up for right seat flying? Need the Ercoupe
software and you can do away with those rudder pedal thingies...
;-)


Crap. I better contact my A&P, quick, to change the design of the new
"cockpit" to include TWO yokes...

;-)

I've never landed from the right seat, but I fly from there all the
time (with Mary in the left) -- and the sight-picture is remarkably
different. You wouldn't think 26 inches one way or 't'other would make
that much difference, but it does.

Default Right seat problems

The PIC (Pilot in Command) may be in any seat, even in the backseat
if he/she wishes.

From the Aviation Dictionary,
"The person who (1) has final authority and responsibility for the
operation and safety of the flight".

Doesn't mean the hands are on the yoke/stick, just means that's
the one who will be sued.

Right? Left? Doesn't matter. Straight ahead is straight ahead.
