E.g., that means it was *easy to fly and *stable. (Or course you should have known that before now, since duba did it). Drone target aircraft are not flown all that aggressively most of the time. Certainly not as manoeuvering missile bait a la Top Gun if only because situational awareness as regards your opponent would be difficult to maintain. Are you truly as clueless as you seem to be, LeTurd? [snip] bush didn't do something dangerous and daring. Dangerous yes but thats inherent in the job. You were wrong about the F-102 being trivially-simple to fly, too. That and much else.
