People keep refering to the over-sensitive rudder, perhaps it is more sensetive than other aircraft, however the pilots were trained to fly this aircraft and were therefore used to the "feel" of this aircraft.

In addition, the NTSB report states that 140lbs of force were applied to the rudder pedals which would have given full deflection no matter whether the aircraft was an A300 or B767.
