As has been said already, go and practice at a safe ht. In most light a/c including the Pitts, from an engine failure in the after take off mode (again, at a safe ht) I can be pointing the other way with a loss of 200ft. Just stuff the nose down, roll on 60 or so bank, pull to the stall warner, roll out on heading. After a bit of practice you can refine it of course! It is a bit of fun just seeing what your a/c can do. Please no hands up in horror replies.
