the airbus rudder is very sensitive. i believe that they reported that the f/o applied the wrong rudder at first, then swapped from full rudder in one direction to full rudder in the opposite direction. typically, you do not use the rudder on the airbus unless it is needed for crosswind control during t/o and ldg, or if you lose an engine.
