Hey, I was forced to attend Mass at Holy Angels Catholic Church, in West
Bend, Wisconsin, EVERY DAY from 1963 through 1967.

EVERY DAY.

Nowadays, that would constitute "child abuse" -- but back then, it was
considered "normal"...

;-)

Strangely enough, I can still recite long stretches of the old Catholic Mass
entirely from memory...

I could be wrong, but doesn't it matter a LOT as to how quickly the
maneuver
is stopped and started? Like, an up down done over 9 seconds is almost no
strain, and one done in 3 seconds is *considerably* more strain on the
plane?

Yeah, I'm wondering that, too.

Everyone is saying I didn't put too much negative G on the airframe -- which
is nice to hear -- but it was a pretty abrupt maneuver. I know when I do
"up/downs" with the kids, if I do it long and slow, it's a lot easier on
everyone than if I yank and push.

Hopefully pushing hard didn't stress things too much...

My kids usually beg for one, ask for one more, and then are happy not to
do
a third, especially when it's hot.

Really unlikely. When you're on the ground, the wings aren't holding the
plane up. The landing gear is. You, probably, didn't even hit -.1G. -1 is
everything plastered against the roof. You probably didn't put much more
stress on it than a take-off at gross.

That being said, DHs advice is as sound as any I've seen on the subject.
Unless you're really competent with acro, even something as innocent as a
chandelle or lazy 8, spiral or spin can quickly get out of hand and stress
the airframe.

Oooo. Was that a chill I just felt? I remember those, with dread.

And, amazingly, the Church still wonders aloud why their membership
plummeted in the 1970s! D'oh!
