Default Myth: 1 G barrel rolls are impossible.

Do you remember Bill Whitsell from over at Flying W


Yes...Bill wanted to buy his son an airplane and asked me to
demonstrate the Yankee to him. Unfortunately, it was fully
fueled. The stall warning started at liftoff and continued
until the wheels were back on the ground 5-10 min. later. To
say that Bill was somewhat large is a gross understatement.
He immediately decided not to buy a Yankee.
