Sorry - missed this.
I'm pretty sure I stated my opinion the first time CONF iture posted that video, which if I recall correctly was along the lines of - he's as welcome to his opinion as anyone, and his feat of flying certainly means that opinion will have clout and I for one am in awe of what he pulled off. Nevertheless, I disagree with aspects of it on the grounds that there have been several instances of pulling into stall (at least one of which involved UAS) where the presence of a linked PFC had no effect on the outcome.
You may well ask who the hell I am to hold such an opinion, and the answer is "nobody". But the fact is that the argument stating linked controls will prevent a situation where one pilot pulls back into a stall and the other does nothing is demonstrably untrue.
