Correct. Our WSO/RIO crews receive no flight training, and do not take control at any time. Nor can we do their job from the front seat.
And you're welcome! I enjoyed doing it, and I'm glad to hang out and participate in the community however I can!
As to that myth, yeah it's exactly that. Let's just say we had no trouble with the Super Bug or Viper aggressors. She's not just good at dancing for her size, she can turn with just about anything she needs to. Very, very agile aircraft. Both at low speed, and up to Mach 2 and a bit over. Definitely better than her peers in all regards, and her replacements in many.
