did I pick this up correctly from the BBC programme ....... 4 inches of pedal movement on the ground gives full rudder deflection ...... one and a quarter inches of pedal movement in the air gives full rudder deflection ......

I thought that once airborne and with increasing velocity that pedal movement is progressively restricted with a corresponding limit on rudder deflection (to structurally protect the rudder/fin)

this was not mentioned at all in the programme?
