But its an old trick. Check out the living legend that is Bob Hoover, now aged 94, pouring tea with one hand whilst barrel rolling a
large piston twin with the other. Classic stuff.

Then for good measure some aeros with two engines, then one, then none.

Beat me too it, Max: but I just had a non-dry eye moment watching his video again; and others black & whites from old colleagues paying tribute to the WGFP.

Many have been asking about the assessment program for Mumbo Jumbo airlines. Shame that all of it is mostly straight & level. When asked, why not show them this video, as a joke, and tell them they have to go and practice.

Which reminds me of the story of a guy with a guitar on his back hunting within the maze of Manhattan. He stopped a pedestrian and asked, "how do you get to Carnegie Hall?" The quick as a flash reply was, "you gotta practice son, gotta practice."

Tex Johnston did something similar in a B707 in 1955.

Concorde was rolled multiple times by her test pilots, including Jean Franchi and Brian Walpole.
