Jeremy Zawodny's blog: Flying Archives: "A Barrel Roll while Pouring Iced Tea
posted at 07:17 AM | PermaLink | Comments (12)
I've heard rumors about a pilot who demonstrated that you can pour a drink in the cockpit while doing a barrel roll and not spill a drop. Thanks to the magic of YouTube and an email tip, I have finally seen the video.
Since a barrel roll is a positive G maneuver (properly executed), the story was always believable, but there's something about seeing it for myself that made me smile. :-)
Oh, the other high speed, power off, low flying antics in that video are quite entertaining too."
