The problem is, AA717, that when I say "stand on its wingtip" I mean literally - 90º AOB. Load factor 1/cos AOB then becomes infinite. Edging a 260 hp two-seater on the point of stall is fun (and possible, briefly with lots of top rudder), but it is impossible to balance!

Great! How do I persuade ATC to give me that instruction when I get to fly big aircraft
