When in doubt, roll out. Tightening the turn feels right, but is so wrong.
Hotel Tango. I agree. "Only in Russia". What nonsense.
In the last of the videos, the pilot looks to have rolled right a couple times, to shallow his dive, and from the response, I think he thought he had it made. Hindsight 20/20. Just to say an air show emphasizes drama, and some risk above the normal is expected.
Piltdown. In review, it appears closer than at first. It won't help the family, but the mistake was one that's been made before, with better results. I know nothing about the aircraft except to say it is one huge and heavy single.
A similar? The Colonel who tried knife edge flight at Fairbanks, with similar results. In a B-52.
