Hey dude... i read through all the posts... from Ed, from VP's and all the others... they did not want fool?! but they did now...!
ok you're one of those "its business" and "shit happened guys" ... me not... sorry... you can tell it business if they were in competition lbut i think that wasnt the fact...
for example, In my oppinion ED had choosen another jet like Mig-29UB for a testbed... there is also just a trainer backseat like in the L-39, no extra avionics and so on... so in this case they had developped the new and long awaited flight physics of the Mig-29, had a testbed for MP cockpits and its the same flight physics like the single seater... erverybody would be happy... but this just for example...
