My personal comments.
First I must say that I am glad that those who saw the display at Leuchars did not feel that it was unsafe.
But….giving me credit for the way the A-26 has been displayed earlier….and by other pilots…is not something I like to read.
I have flown the Invader since 1991. Flown displays in accordance to my UK Display Authorization since 1994.
I have NEVER done Cuban Eights or Barrel rolls in my display routine. In ANY country.
We can discuss the fact that I banked more than 60 degrees at the top of the wing-overs. But at that point with approx. 1G….I don’t see that it puts to much stress on the airplane.
There are many other questions under this string….witch I can come back to later if someone has a specific interest to that.
PS. Mr. OSH: I never flew over the crowd, or got warned on the R/T for flying over the crowd.
So please get the facts straight before you post it here.
Well….that’s all I wanted to say here at this time.
I want to thank Seafuryfan for the nice talk we had after the show. And I am more than happy to talk to anybody about the Invader or the display if you should see me in the future.
Fly safe!
