Myth: 1 G barrel rolls are impossible.
writes:
'Some combination', 'several possibilities.' I'm confused by this -
can you be more precise? What are the possibilities?
You can move and accelerate in any combination of three dimensions, with any
combination of acceleration rates, almost. You have to calculate the
direction and magnitude of the net acceleration vector to determine exactly
how much force is acting upon the pilot, and in which direction.
Some of it is (or should be) intuitive. For example, if you turn the aircraft
to the right, you'll be accelerated to the right.
