I enjoyed Flight, but wondered if inverting that type of plane was possible at that altitude/speed??


Plane buffs please keep it simple as I'll read the answers on my night shift and I have to stay awake

Not seen the film, so can't comment on the scenario.

HOWEVER.

The Boeing 707 was on a display flight for potential buyers (as the Dash 80 in the day) when the test pilot, Tex Johnson decided to wow the airline executives by barrel rolling. The manoeuvre was safe, he became a legend a Boeing because of it, and also got what the Yanks call an ass chewing for his stunt with the prototype!!
