OK, Sunday afternoon, found myself on my own flying something aerobatic (+6/-4G i think) at 4000 feet. After a few steep turns and wingovers, i thought about doing a roll - never had an aeros training
but i've read a bit, so dive for a bit of speed, nose up to about 30 degrees .. at 100kts centralize controls, full right stick ... wheeee, world rotates around outside ... back level, find myself about 20 degrees nose down, pull up to straight and level, that was fun
do a couple more. Look at G meter, reading +2.5, probably pulling out of the first one. Go back home with
on face
Talking to pilot friend later, told him about this. Conversation was something like
Him: "Oh, I didn't know you'd done some aeros training"
Me: "I haven't"
Him: "Then you're a
ing fool then"
Am I? I wasn't doing anything like loops or stall turns, I figured that nothing much could go wrong with a roll - i've done spin training so happy that i could get out of that, and had lots of height.
