Yeah, good point. I should mention "securing the cockpit for aerobatic
maneuvers" in the lesson plan/checklist.
I watched a video once of some Blue Angels practicing when a team member had
planted a sandwich in the cockpit of one of the other planes. The pilot
executed a roll and you could plainly see the sandwich floating across the
cockpit. Pretty funny but I don't think I'd want that happening to me while
performing formation aerobatics.
