Well done GB.

Another one that gets me and many others are the ones that put their heavy feet on the rudder pedals and are sublimely unaware that you can feel it. Yes, by all means have your feet on the pedals chaps but please try and keep them there lightly like all the other considerate chaps when doing a PNF sector. Had one of them a few days ago who had his feet so securely secured to the pedals that I thought I had a rudder problem at the start of the takeoff run! Yes, and he was also one of those who spent the preflight running down the "useless Capt's" he had been flying with recently and then proceeded to give a sad display of flying skills and airmanship on his sector, without even realising his weaknesses, frightening but we seem to be getting more and more of them or am I just becoming a grumpy old bugger?
