I think you need to equip the 2nd gun so that you have a turret. then the gunner would only be in the turret.
were you grouped with your gunner?

As was indicated... the Y-wing LP is not multiplayer. The turret is replaced with a forward mounted gun that the pilot can also control. Therefore: Y-wing is 1 gun for pilot, 1 turret for passenger; Y-wing LP is 2 guns for pilot, no passengers.
The LP is a deepspace heavy scout variant of the Y-wing. The turret area was replaced with scanning and communications equipment.

Normal Y-wing is, long probe isnt.
You are absolutly rignt!
But it is a bit confusing,
The Alliance Tier 1 skill box,'Basic Starfighter',gives you the 'Y-Wing Piloting Certification'.
The Alliance Tier 2 skill box, 'Multi-Role Craft', gives you the 'Y-Wing (Long Probe) Certicication.
I always thought that meant that the 'Long Prob' was the Multi-Role craft.
This now explains why as a single pilot, you can only operate one set of blasters in the Y-Wing,but now I see you can operate both blasters in the Long Prob.
I never realized this until now.. thx for your help.
