: Hello Again
: Thanks for your answers to previous questions.

: Building a Breat Aul Double.

: At the point of having to install or not install a rudder.

: Although not a necessity is it nice to have?

: Thanks

Well depends (good answer huh? ). Guys like me that get used to not having a rudder prefer it that way. To me having foot pedals that arn't fixed feels wrong. Those that have gotten used to a rudder seem to tend to prefer them. To me it's just something else that can break and I'd rather avoid that.
