Better tell BAE they are wasting their time then.
"The biggest drawback of the “passive” sidesticks now used in civil aircraft is the lack of control feedback from the aircraft or the other pilot."
"This ensures both sidesticks move together in response to both pilot and autopilot commands, providing crew situational awareness equivalent to conventional pilot controls, says BAE."
"But the biggest advantage claimed for active over passive sidesticks is that both pilot and copilot controls track each other at all times. “This provides good situational awareness between the pilots—they can both see and feel their sidesticks moving,” says Taylor."
