Sorry to go back a bit but...
Has there actually been any research into how humans cope with nonlinear controls (eg like that found on the rudder)? I tried a web search but didn't find anything that lept out at me. It would seem to be important as we are about to get speed senstitve steering in our cars.
Being English and living in Belgium I am used to driving on both sides of the road. I've been living in Belgium for the last 4 years and feel 100% converted to driving on the right - so why did I swerve to the wrong way recently?
Isn't it possible that a pilot faced with a sudden upset might respond automatically and apply rudder travels normally only used at lower speeds?
