Some R44's may be slow chargers, but so can any other piece of equipment if a compressor is dead in the consist. Are you saying brake pipe air (which is higher on the R44 than other cars in the fleet) fluctuates? I am no expert on R44's, have seldom operated them and try to avoid them like avoiding a wild dog, but the last time I operated one a few months ago brake pipe air remained steady. I have heard no complaints from other t/o's about fluctuating brake pipe pressure. The cab is too small for my size too. For a few days afterward, my back and shoulders were quite sore.
