rack on 140 degrees of bank
As a display pilot on the old Wessex it was possible to overbank the old girl in a wingover. You had to carefully manage speed control so making sure you pulled up to slow her down - then overbank as you turned in a wingover - as the nose dropped you levelled and pulled out of the dive going in the opposite direction
