pretty soon i got to the conclusion, that the problem is the design of the pedals, where one have to put not only the toes and balls, but also the heels on the pedals all the time because ch put a sort of can on the rear end of the pedals, where the heels are supposed to rest.thats a pretty dumb design in my view, cause as far as i know, in real planes such thing doesnt exist, and also in cars its absent.

It depends on the type. When you need a strong push or pedal a long way, you must be heel on the pedal all time (and because of the brake, the pedal must be pressed on upper part). That was all the German type, but for example the P-47 as well: (pedal from 11:20, brake from 20:20)
