Myth: 1 G barrel rolls are impossible.

Hang on, let's keep things simple:

1. If I enter a coordinated turn, I experience an increase in Gs.
2. If I enter a descent, I experience a decrease in Gs.

If I do these two things at the same time, it is possible to enter a
descending turn without any change in Gs. Just as long as I
continously feed in enough down elevator to offset the increasing Gs
from the turn, the force on the airframe and me, the pilot, will stay
at 1 G.

Isn't there some sinister name for this
when it happens to a non-IFR pilot in a cloud?

Graveyard spiral dive

Which probably isn't a coincidence, since pilots likely get into these
precisely because they maintain "normal" G forces.

Nope, wrong again, fjukktard.

Berties right!
You are every thing he says..
FYI a noninstument rated pilot entering IFR conditions has about 90
seconds of life remaining.
The resulting high speed spiral dive is a result losing all visual
references and becoming disorientated in cloud...

Thought it was 158 seconds before he loses orientation and then whatever it
takes to crash into the hard edge of the sky.

I recall it being 132.44 seconds.

You're a tit.

Oh wait, tit's are useful.

My mistake.

At least you're consistent. (Wrong, but consistent)

Yeah. That 100th of a second is really relevant.
