Hello all,

Some interesting views on EFT, just wandering if you boys have any on AFT. For what it's worth, I agree with DB6. I flew Bulldogs with Yorkshire UAS (the finest) and I can't see how having the roll rate it did provided any real benefit. As I understand it, the Firefly can still perform all the basic manouvres required on an Elementary course, with additional power to boot. So what are you all arguing about? Whats more important in my mind is why we are still flying around in a 1970s cockpit at Valley when the frontline of the near future requires guys with a very different training.

Your thoughts?
