Watch my friend Spencer

I have flown with Spencer in that very plane. It was a blast...but after a few hammerheads and spins....I was not feeling very awesome. He used to have (maybe he still does) stickers of a stick-figure puking that he added whenever somebody got sick.
 
Stretchybatics!
 
I'd give it a whirl. If flying back from LZU last week didn't get me to barf...

FIFY :)

Nah, aerobatics are fun. Just don't let the pilot talk you into eating before. Yeah "full stomach is happy stomach" does not work in the cockpit at 4 Gs. :)

I did an eight lesson intro to aerobatics a number of years ago. Before the last lesson, the CFI and I ate at a neighbors hangar party. Two brats with mustard and onions, potato salad, and cherry pie.

Then we did pretty much the entire routine. Immelmans split s cloverleafs snaps etc. No issues.

Sorry, I wasn't clear, I meant for newbies.
Once used to Gs, it's no biggie. But the first one can be a surprise for the pax.
 
Awesome videos. Although I have Samsung 360 camera and Oculus goggle, but the non-360 version made even better. I wonder what editing software he use. "Power Director"?

Somebody knows? Can Pietenpol leave the corkscrew?
 
A. That looks cool as hell.
B. I almost yacked just watching the video
C. That is some weird music
 
I used to vomit from riding a Ferris wheel. Wingovers and three-turn spins are my limit.
 
In January, Spencer is going to attempt to beat the world record (held by himself) for most inverted flat spins.
I believe his target is 150 spins and If I am not mistaken, he plans to start from 30,000 in his Pitts.

Here's the original record
