Apparently not. I asked him that even before I posted this question here.

A friend asked me what was this "Fallen angel" maneuver, but I've never

hear
of it before.
If someone knows what it is, I'd appreciate a description.

A.


Perhaps he means a "falling leaf"?

Basically the plane is flown either upright or inverted wings level
and power off into a stall. It is kept deep in the stall with the
stick full aft or forward and the rudder is used to prevent a spin.
Obviously you 'fall' like a leaf.
