I was looking at pics of Boeing cockpits vs. Airbus and have a question...I have to imagine most people are right-hand dominant...I'm trying to make sense of why the pilot's joystick is set up for his left hand...I suppose he needs his right hand for throttles/radios, etc, but I wonder if that has a negative impact on the way some pilots fly. At least with a traditional yoke in front of you, either hand can grab the thing.
And before this turns into an Airbus v. Boeing discussion, I'm simply questioning the ergonomics of the set up.
