You know what would be really helpful?  A dual-control feature for the Training Arena.

I've had students ride on my plane and vice-versa.  It would be really nice if we could "hand off" control of the plane in flight.  Then I can show them a maneuver, and they can fly it right away.

How hard would this be to implement?

As one who has rode with FunkedUp, I agree that it would be a GREAT idea.  Make it a two seater, I couldn't tell if Funk was happy to see me or had a roll of certs in his pocket.

Spat,

You can join, but can't quickly switch over controls.  Also, its very important, IMO to be able to see tracers and hear engine/stall horn Noises.
