Anyway, we see the effects of late-phase rudder inputs feeding back into the oscillation instead of damping it. Left swerve, corrected by right rudder. But it also self-corrects to the right due to the natural directional stability, and the pilot maintains the right rudder too long. So both those effects combine into a right swerve. So the pilot puts in left rudder but maintains it too long, etc.
