I know of another CofG accident when a Lightning F3 from the 1987 aeros pilot went into an (inverted?) spin due to fuel transfer problems. That was overhead Binbrook. Anyone know of the manoeuvre attempted?
Btw would the lighter F3 been able to come out of that Tengah Lightning 'rote' without problems? If I recall the figures correctly he held the Lightning down a bit more and rotated at 290knots instead but pulled (apparently) in excess of 5G (didn't know the Lightning could pull as much from such a low airspeed!).
