Trying to find the flight with Gerry L in a T21. Took off got to about 1200 , stick right back.
I think I was showing GL how to loop. Stalled it, pointed at the ground,watched for 80 knots back and over.Ok gerry you try one.Stalled it,looked at the ground , he pulled it back at 75 knots.Got upside down and STOPPED,was hanging there ,all the grass came out of the cockpit, luckily we didnt go backwards and rip off the tail.After that I always dble checked my harness.I still have nightmares of falling out of that T21 sheesh.
