Accompanied by Eric Gerard, chief test pilot for the program, in the right seat and Frederic Lascourreges, Dassault Aviation’s chief test pilot, on the jump seat as safety pilot.

Surely the most advanced in this segment. Dassault's control systems are unsurpassed. Very good review, thank you

Test Pilot Eric Gerard used to perform some of the finest Rafale demos (you can find them easily on KZfaq) and you can see that he's enjoying the negative G manoeuvre.

Hammer Lane that is an understatement. If I was to win a big, make that very big lottery drawing, I would have one. As a private pilot I would love a little stick time. One can dream.

Yes, thats one thing I don't like in aviation. The USA are one of very few countrys that uses it, but because they were very present in the beginning of aviation, now the whole aviation has to use it.

Ne pourraient - ils pas tout simplement s' exprimer en Francais ? Etant un equipage Français dans un avion Français ? C' est franchement irritant comme comportement...
