This seems to support my earlier claim that the Zurakowski roll or cartwheel was first done on the Hornet - "not possible in horizontal flight, only from vertical.". . I would question the claim though that the falling leaf was a NEW manouver, thought this had been performed for many years before Jan did it on the CF100, though he probably WAS the first to do it on a Jet.
