Ice Cream Cone Nearly Comes Unstuck

Basic Flying Rules: "Try to stay in the middle of the air. Do not go near the edges of it. The edges of the air can be recognized by the appearance of ground, buildings, sea, trees and interstellar space. It is much more difficult to fly there."

I've obviously been doing it wrong. I've never seen or used the "foot out the door" technique.

Certainly good for a laugh.

Don't remember that technique being taught when I was doing my licence.

Nope...thats what dynamic rollover looks like when it DOESN'T happen...one very lucky pair of fellas and one very forgiving machine.

FYI, if that roll rate had been a wee bit higher, then... WHAMMO... dynamic rollover.

A good idea needs landing gear as well as wings to get off the ground.

For the record, I never mentioned the "B" word. I cunningly referred to it as "The Icecream Cone". I should be safe. :wink:

Pegs is the only one who has mentioned the B word, so at your request, you will be banned...
Lol
