Very sweet! The amount of work required to make the co-pilot stations functional must have been huge. Thank you TD!

Actually, it pretty much makes training planes possible, as long as you count the student pilot as a "copilot" and allow the pilot to instantly override copilot control inputs. A flyable U-2 trainer would be quite welcome, since they were occasionally used as co-op and night harassment planes.
Co-pilots also makes fully-functional Norden type bomb sights possible, since the pilot can temporarily grant the bombardier the ability to "fly" the plane, but with control only along certain axes (pitch and yaw).
Additionally, it makes bombardier/pilot cooperation possible for non-Norden type sights, since bombardier commands to the pilot are nothing more than delayed input, short-lived flight control commands. As a bombardier, it allows you to "control" the pilot using a variant of trim tab commands for the rudder and elevators.
