A Prelim?

Perhaps now that the Army has put the program on hold, when they " unhold it " and realize that the capability of the candidate pool has broadened, another fly-off will be held.

Please enlighten re the voluntary fly-off. Was it an engineering and service evaluation in parallel? Against a published Material Need Document or a spec within an RFP? How many vehicles per contractor? How many Army pilots involved? Aircraft put in the field for the service eval? Just trying to get a feel for how thorough the Army was at this point? Curious about the " voluntary " part of it, as the word makes it sound somewhat casual.
