Please report here...
Tried it. Basically, once you get it so fast the nose can't be held up with the Yoke on the back stop. Closing the throttles, causes a nose drop and the rate is sufficient that you will not lose any speed to regain control. We froze the sim with 9,500fpm showing...... Done at about 15,000ft.
Quite sobering.
