Question

Can copilot in back of F16, pilot plane from rear?

Answer 1

Depends on the model.  The trainer model has full controls in both seats, while some 2 seaters dont. so yes and no.

Answer 2

Yes. I assume you are talking about the 2 seat F16 used for training, not the regular one.

Answer 3

The F-16 Fighting Falcon was not designe with a rear seat. If one is installed, it is primarily used as a passenger seat and has no access to the controls. The only action the occupant can do is EJECT!!

Answer 4

i think....

Answer 5

Good Lord...if you don't know, don't just answer for the d**n points.

YES, the F-16B/D can be flown from the rear seat.

Answer 6

B models (two seat As) and D models (two seat Cs), at least to Block 32 had most of the controls in the back.  The backseat had a sequence handle for ejection (who commanded) and could be paddled off with the paddle at the base of the stick by the front seater -- other than that, full up Viper less about 1700 pounds of gas.  

There were a few differences  in switchology and the DTC (Data Transfer Cartrigde) was front seat only.

Answer 7

Yes, the 2-seat F-16 is used to train new pilots. The instructor flies the back seat, and the student flies the front seat. Most high-performance fighters use a 2-seat model to train new pilots.
