Double trouble

While we are on the subject; what do our correspondants think to the PNF resting his/her feet on the rudder pedals during Take-off. I was told by one miscreant who flew with me recently that he was told to put his feet there in the event of and RTO!!!! If I had my steel ruler with me I would have done as my instructor in the good old RAF would have done and rapped his kneecap!
Just where do people get the idea that they should 'follow through' on the rudders during Take-off? Why not 'follow through' on the joystick/controls? Why not 'follow through' on the throttles? Why have PF/PNF at all if you are going to have your PNF 'following through' on everything I do?
My feet rest on the floor with my toes on the pedals, my PNF will have his feet firmly planted flat on the floor! period!!!
