Direct me to the post that claims pilot ruddering caused anything?Direct me to the post that claims pilot ruddering caused anything
With over a thousand posts here and other threads on this, that would be impossible ! I simply recall mention of 'possible' over-controlling in OTHER than Normal Law.

Edit: Follow-up to your addition.

You are correct...the 'rudder' didn't leave the a/c, the whole tail did. But, as in AA587, it was claimed that the seperation was caused by the pilot overloading the rudder.
