Roll rate: 720 degrees per second - what a head-bouncer! We could get
the Zipper to roll a but faster by stomping on teh rudder to yaw it -
the A-model's manual rudder took a good hard stomp, though.

When I was an A-4 instructor, I was amazed at the number of pilots who thought
full stick deflection in the A-4 gave you that 720 deg/sec rate (I suspect it
was more like 3/4 that). Many of them were even MORE amazed when I showed them
what happened when you stomp the rudder as well to get the REAL max rate...
