The best way to do it is with a steep bank. Very steep.

The bank angle may be quantified:

Good grief Larry, you really are an idiot.
Of course it can be quatified, but the numbers only tell a minute
part of the story. I can categorically state that I can do a 180
with
70 deg bank at VSO 1.2 deadstick and come out the other end in one
piece. Can you? Try it using those figures and send my the answer
via
my Ouiji board.

Well I cannot understand you you can load the plane up like that and
not raise stall speed beyond 1.2Vs so you must be using a wing drop
to
acclerate the turn? Do you could just stall out of the turn -but
how
much height do you loose in the stall and it's recovery?

No, you have to lower the nose continuously to offload as you go
around
the bend. You will end up fairy nose low at the end of the turn
alright
but you can recover that as you level the wings. The turn is pretty
rapid at that speed so you won't be in it too long. It's as about "on
the edge" as you can get. It's the only way it can be done unles you
have an airplane with an outrageous climb. If you're proficient in
spins
try it at a bit of altitude and a reduced bank angle. You can
increase
the bank in subsequent attempts as you become more comfortable. just
don't get the idea that this will make you good enough to try it in
anger on it's own!

Did you and MX work that out on the sim last night???

oh ouch. Lumping me with Anthony. What's next, hitler?
