when instead of leaving solo, Ewald jumped in the front.
Ah, so it's Ewald's fault! I wonder what happened which caused Ewald to jump into the other pilot's seat of an intended solo flight by another pilot? I would think that TCT would have been resistant to that, as it would be interference with her planned solo flight! I'd be offended if another pilot decided to jump into an aircraft I was planning to fly solo, particularly when publicity was involved!
