Why not? I'm right handed, but have flown yoke equipped airplanes

I presume that the problem Bob foresees is how to write things down
while
flying the airplane.


bingo.


I guess that rules our flying a stick equipped airplane or a chopper
also, right?


no. But I'm not going to fly a side stick from the left seat.
At least not until I relearn how to write with my right hand.

I know there are left-handed pilots that are comfortable reaching
across to hold the stick, or will doing the flying with rudder or
autopilot while writing. But I want that added capability of being
able to hold the yoke and write at the same time.

And if that means I won't fly a chopper, no loss for me. I never
had any interest in them anyway.
