Flight Maneuvers

Post by Phoenix9 » Fri Sep 07, 2007 9:52 pm

Here is a link to a nice little program that lets you view most of the standard flight maneuvers that are used in combat/aerobatics flight. It's only 350 Kb or so, so there's no excuse for not getting it! ;)

Hmmm... seems like my memory is playing tricks on me... :shock:

I thought all the basic aerobatics maneuvres were n there, but they aren't. Anyway... I've had a god look around on the web and found some interesting stuff about it. ;)
