I had a flight instructor, one of my favorites, who lost his leg in a motorcycle accident as well as losing the ability to bend his remaining leg. He had a special device built to help actuate the rudders with his free hand and he was leading a very fulfilling career as an instructor and check pilot in my college 141 program. He was a former Army King Air guy and taught me more about CRM than I ever could have hoped to learn in school.
