Default Hey Dudley, detailed analysis of these?

The ones I've done are on about 60 deg upline, then left knife edge,
and then full forward stick, right aileron, and full left rudder.
It'll go around and do three tumbles, each at right angles. It usually
ends in a level attitude at right angles to the original line of
flight, with the prop howling at full RPM, and zero indicated
airspeed. It's actually not violent at all, with little g load.

When I first got the Extra, now seven years ago, I promised my wife
that I would never do airshows, and never charge anyone for a ride
(not that I would anyway). It's been a great ride and lots of fun.



Nice machine OK. Wildest thing I've ever flown was a a Pitts and didn't get
up to much inthe short time I had in them.
