    Yeah. He looked like he had a fun time flying it. In all actuality when you are flying the big jets it is not like a cessna. You do not imput and get immediate response. It has a slight lag to it so you work it and imput than correct and counter imput etc etc... to maintain a specific flight profile really. In the lear20 and 30 series when your flying it by hand espesially in the final approach config you "snap" the controls back and forth alot is the best way I can explain it. A little left than back over and so on and so fourth. In rough conditions like high winds etc... your working the yolk and rudders all the more.
