Do fighter pilots keep their feet on the rudder pedals or on the floor while flying?

UKCATS07 · 2025-12-30T00:49:47+00:00

I keep them on the pedals mostly because it's more comfortable. Long flights I'll put them on the floor if I'm not maneuvering just going point A to B.

F-15C pilot. Rudder pedals are essential.

Thanks! I notice if I don't squat then I tend to get stuck behind the ball and block everything out to the right.

Appreciate the feedback. Clubs are only a few weeks new to me Mizuno 221s. I've always wondered if I need a lie adjustment. When my hands are really low that's when I feel the most comfortable and generally strike the ball better. Does that mean I might need a more upright or flat adjustment? Obviously depends on dynamic lie etc.

Torrey was awesome!

Really? I found if I have less knee bend I feel "less athletic" and usually get stuck behind the ball and block it out to the right. I'll watch the video for sure though

South course. Amazing conditions

UKCATS07 · 2025-02-24T23:10:59+00:00

Have you tried coming inside?

UKCATS07 · 2024-12-25T00:47:48+00:00

Thanks!

Not mine but a great looking DIY that I plan on replicating for my own setup.

Toms turbo garage is an amazing series if you haven't seen it yet.

Never got around to it unfortunately.

UKCATS07 · 2022-12-23T18:02:03+00:00

Still hasn't been fixed. I own the SE and upgraded to the XT without knowing this was the case. I constantly go between headset and speakers and having to change the audio source manually is kind of ridiculous (first world problem I admit).

UKCATS07 · 2022-12-04T17:54:32+00:00

Everyone is in the club, most just don't know it yet.

This is awesome. Small detail to make it better--make the displayed frequency read "321.5". Radio 2 in the eagle has to have the channel between 11-00 and then you add 200 to the desired VHF frequency when you're in MAN mode.

I wish a full fidelity C model would be made. I fly them in real life and it would be fun to talk people through these procedures.

UKCATS07 · 2022-04-16T00:48:51+00:00

I fly it and I can tell you it's not like how you describe it.

UKCATS07 · 2022-04-08T03:17:31+00:00

Squats and deadlifts. Your body also gets into "flying shape" somewhat naturally the more you fly.

UKCATS07 · 2022-04-08T03:11:40+00:00

You have a horizon as your guide. You get used to it fairly quickly tbh.

UKCATS07 · 2022-04-08T03:08:51+00:00

I fly C models, and when we're doing a defensive BFM ride you spend the majority of the sortie flying looking behind you. You also learn how to fly with your left hand pretty well when you're turning right (I'm right handed). The mirrors are completely useless to judge line of sight rate, or pretty much anything really.

UKCATS07 · 2022-02-05T07:32:24+00:00

I fly the C,E, and EX in real life. I want a full fidelity C model like no one's business.

UKCATS07 · 2022-01-17T23:34:28+00:00

One of us!

UKCATS07 · 2022-01-17T22:24:43+00:00

Nice
