The Tonka was a joy! FBW and fully integrated TFR Nav/Attack.
A strange thing with the T.Birds is that they seem to have a different pitch response from the rear seat control input. Certainly, I found that circuit work from the back seat of the T.Bird required a greater degree of finesse to avoid a stable PIO. A regular thing was the combination of degraded system approaches for training. A back seat, 67 wing, mech-mode, PAR was a good one! Of course, rollers (touch and go) from the rear are fun with no forward visibilty, as is demo dive/strafe, in the old jets with no forward sighting!
