Rudder

In the B737 I used the rudder to straighten the AC with the
centerline and during single engine. In the B777 you use it just
for directional control to the centerline. When the TAC is on then
you do not need to compensate for assymetric thrust by yourself
the rudder got "pushed" for you by the magic TAC.
