G'day Gents,

In the airline I fly for part of the B767 endorsement sim training included a control freeze and the use of the breakout facility to fly the aeroplane. The breakout force is quite high and initially I though the whole thing had frozen, but once you get a feel for it flying the aeroplane was straightforward though jerky everytime you needed to overcome the breakout.

Regards,
BH.
