Sorry for my propensity for persistence, but I’m not sure my question was answered. I’ll ask it again, but generally:
I note the ATSB report says this about flight carried out in a Level D simulator for a similar model aircraft: .... The unambiguous implication of that outcome (assuming it substantially replicated the performance of ZCR) is that it is not physically possible for the aircraft to fly away ‘like a homesick angel’, if the rudder trim is set to full deflection (or at least full nose left deflection), unless the pilot is an “exceptional human”.

[Has anyone had] any first-hand experience, either in the simulator or the aircraft, of flight with the rudder trim set to full nose left deflection and both engines delivering maximum thrust [and accelerating through 140kts]?
