In all my years of operating big jets, except for engine failure, I have never encountered an inflight upset that necessiated the use of rudder.
And a procedure of ever having to "kick" the rudders in a large transport category airplane is impractical reality, if not outright stupefying.
The copilot in the A306 who had kicked the rudders in rapid succession had a history of doing so when he was flying B722s at an earlier time; ...this, according to one AA captain who had flown with him, in a deposition that is attached to the NTSB Report.
