It might if you flew a Pitts.

Just got an old copy of "The conquest of lines and symmetry" in
anticiaption of my return to the wonderful world of trying to break your
neck. His syllaus is very strange in my view, but I can see soe sense in
it at the same time. I developed my own over the years when I used to
teach them and came to the conclusion early that one of the first things
they needed to learn was how to stay out, but more importantlt, how to
get out of trouble.
Now. Immelmans would have been well down the road in my classes, bu the
teaches them on lesson one. "This is nuts" though I. But then I realised
that even though the student was going to end up pointing about 90 deg
from the entry heading at the end when he tries this first, he's going
to be learning the principles of an escape manuever by virtue of the
fact that it's forcing him to think in three axes.
