Were these Pilots qualified for the job of Test Pilot? Seems worrying to me that they were on the leading edge of such a flight test program without much more than being the right
PR men. Regardless of cause, is it correct that they were both amateur "Test Pilots"?
yes, they were qualified. no, they were not amateurs. you win the award for the most ignorant post on pprune for ages, and that's quite an achievement.
