   No, it can't. Not if you want to use the throttles at the same time. We   
   never fly two handed. You might hold the yoke with your right for a moment   
   while you grab something, but that's it. The right hand side of it is   
   almost redndant and I have seen some airplanes where the owner cut one side   
   off.
