On the other hand however, in a T38, you can fly a complete aerobatic
sequence including point rolls with both feet planted firmly on the floor of
the rudder tunnels.

I've always wanted to fly a 38 but never had the opportunity...
My Super Viking was one of those few GA machines with adequate tail
volume that you could fly instrument approaches with your feet on the
floor... Conversely, you could fly the plane nicely without ailerons
just using that powerful rudder...

One of the little tricks I do when 'unbrain washing' the pilots I have
helped over the years, is to say to them that: "you have just snapped
the cables to the ailerons and the elevator... now fly me back to the
airport without touching the yoke!"... Some have been totally
helpless... A few have almost instantly figured it out.. And most need
only be shown how for a few seconds... The majority have been amazed
after they successfully herded the plane a dozen miles back to the
airport and it is gratifying to see the light bulb in their head
suddenly light up as they begin to understand how the controls
actually work...
