I like the stupid cheap doors. . . the thought of an emergency eggress from a light plane, after an emergency landing (may have tweaked the airframe), is a little better knowing I can kick the doors and windows off! (not to mention that G forces act in greater magnitude in turns such that you will not fall towards teh ground anyway, I recently flew with an examiner who would place a (empty) beverage cup on the top of the panel while I did my maneuvers, he asked if I had "heard of those DMV examiners from hell" and said that he was the "designated pilot examiner from hell" (he was actually great fun!). The point was to maintain continuous and smooth control inputs, as well as coordinated flight in rapid transitions between steep sturns (lotsa rudder needed on steep turn entry and exit) the maneuver looks something like our combat scissors. . . and the cup of course should remain where it is.S!TX-EcoDragonCurrent mount: P-39 Q10Favorite Plane: BF109-G6A/Sand a bandit on my 6Most feared/resented FB addition: LA-7Characteristic noise during dive as reported by a third party witness: GGGGRRRRRRRBBBBBRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWK!!!
