MSc Human Factors on left and right handedness

Hi All,
I am researching possible issues regarding flight deck and control column handedness ie does it matter which hand you learn/fly with? Is the flight deck asymmetric? etc. I am especially interested in anyone who has had or knows of problems - from that first trial flight with the 'wrong' hand to changing from helos or military to fixed wing, left seat to right (and vice versa) , gliders and so on. Anything at all , even just a relevant article Juggling Pete



New question!!
Does anyone know for sure -with evidence- how the left hand seat PIC rule and circuit arose? I assume it was the americans 'driving' the regulations, but would like to be certain. cheers
