Thanks chaps. 411A has clearly never been upside down in his life and thinks it's dangerous!!
Seriously, It's nice to know test pilots have done this sort of thing and proved the aircrafts capability. We practise jet upsets in the sim and wonder just how much point there is to it..... Then take the BA 747 Nairobi incident. Million to one chance of it ever happening eh?
I personally think there is still a place for doing this sort of think in airliner test flying...... Well, maybe cos it's fun, mostly cos it may happen some day!!
