"Question 590
Captain Hadlow said that he considered that the position in which the rudder was found by the Air Accidents Investigation Branch (a 77 degree left pedal 1.7 inches forward) was a last ditch effort to turn the aircraft."

Can someone please remind me who Captain Hadlow is - and is he a helicopter pilot? What "rudder" was he referring to? The Chinook, in common with every other helicopter in common use, does not have a rudder.
