Alto Saotome: In flight training at high school. Takes over slightly battle-damaged VF-25. Makes some minor attacks before being rescued.
Hayate Immelman: As far as we know, a skilled Work Destroid operator. Takes over a moderately battle-damaged VF-171. Completely outclasses multiple Regults and a Glaug in physical combat, transforms and flies fighter before having a weird glowing naked moment and having VF disabled.
...Hayate seems to be in the lead here.

And yet Hikaru,Shin and Alto had better and more realistic reasons for being able to pilot the Valks at that point in their lives.
I just find it hard to believe that a Destroid designed for civilian work, would have the same controls as a Valk.
Then again the controls could be similar while its in Battroid mode.
