Va and negative g's & fun non-acrobatic maneuvers

It can be done from cruise speed. Pull up into a shallow climb,
then start pushing forward, increasing pressure until the pencil comes
off the panel. It'll feel like negative G's but isn't. The only stress
on the airplane occurs when you pull out of the shallow dive created
by the maneuver.

It will need to be a brief amount of negative g or the pencil will not come
off the power. It will hover where it was with = 0g.
