Sounds like failed barrel roll..

They said it was a stuffed Up, wing over but if he got inverted is would be like falling out of a barrel roll.. Clean aeroplanes get fast, fast when the nose is pointed straight at  the ground.  Nev

I can remember asking an instructor to demonstrate a climb / vertical stall turn (don't know the word)

 

The manouvre was a fizzer

 

An Airtourer I think - the plane fell back - in reverse gear ............. a lesson on how not to do it !

 

It was like backing into a Woolworths parking lot ................ and hitting a couple of shopping trollies on the way in

I have it specifically signed off in my logbook on a CPL giving me authority to teach it.. It can give you a minimum energy loss course reversal, when you get it right..  Nev
