22Tango - Yep much the same. Certainly bigger aeroplanes have their own problems but don't worry about that. The technique you describe is quite normal and works on all aircraft. Four engine aircraft are more restrictive with regard putting the upwind wheel on first due the possibility of scraping the outer engines. However master the technique in your posting and you won't go far wrong. I believe the Tristar was flown cross controlled (rudder and opposite aileron) much earlier but never flew it. Have flown 737/747/757 and 767 - always worked for me.

Good Luck and keep practicing.
