At that speed a 10 degree heading error means 13 feet/sec side wise
movement. The driver over corrected, a tire folded under. We rolled
and spun and ended up in a ditch in the woods. All four of us recovered
but the incident indicates how dangerous formation flying can be.
Mercedes is a good car because it saved our lives.
Not a legitimate comparison.
