One of the very best ones (adapted to aviation use from amateur radio) is
QLF (now try that maneuver using only your LEFT foot.)


Dreadful sorry, Jim, but even the VERY exhaustive list mentioned by Stefan
has no entry for QLF so I am afraid your point is lost on me. Then again,
ANY operation on the radio influenced by foot availability must be tricky,
if not positively lousy...

Thank you Sir, this page seems even more edifying than the previous.
That QLF must be lousy indeed but I will prefer operating the radio with
my LEFT foot over having no feet LEFT especially on a left-foot circuit
(or was that left-hand?).

Or would this apply to sending smoke-signals with a left-foot-activated
oil valve?
