I just talked to a friend of mine that went to the APA meeting in Miami. The latest information that the guys on our accident investigation team have is that the speed of the rudder oscillation was such that it could not have been made by the pilot. He simply would not have been able to move his feet that fast. They timed the rudder movement using CFR data and came up with some rediculously high number. This is consistent with rudder events concerning American A300's at both Miami and Lima.
