The nose wheel is still operated by the pedals however the authority of the pedals in relation to the nose wheel is reduced. All other items you mentioned are operated by the other hand. Check out that other video posted above. That is (In my opinion) the correct procedure. If there was any kind of a crosswind the controls would (should) have been used to counter the cross wind. ALL of them. By the way the control movements in the 73 may seem excessive (I don't really think so) but they were no way even close the the other captain flying the F100 or the AB. Again my opinion. BTW this is not ATPL stuff, this is basic C150 technique. Forgive me please in hijacking the thread.
