This thread is drifting slightly, into nostalgia, but I'll add to it; what the heck. Then we can get back to the real crux of the matter.

Transiting from Navajo to B732. G/A in the jet ended up in rock & roll. Training captain flummoxed. Then he jumped 'in the seat' and realised as I gave it the umph for G/A in went the rudder à la prop induced yaw prevention. I too learnt 'feet on the floor' until we encountered SE G/A's then I was happy.

The other time I taught rudder in B737 was in manual reversion, but gently.
