to retro, we wanted to save as much fuel as
possible, so we alined BEF and I think alining
BEF is easier than in SEF.
Yes ,
I think you can tell yaw better going backwards
than you can going forward.
Yes.
I don't know why, maybe it was just psychological.
I agree with you, I really think you're right.
I think you can tell it better. It streams away
from you a little more .
Yes. It was easier to pull in in yaw.
I thought
it was a little more comfortable feeling .
I
enjoyed the riding around alining the platform
BEF much more than when we alined it SEF, and I
felt we were closer to being on most of the time
when we pulled it in in yaw.
Of course, we had a little better control system
there, it does help.
Yes .
