an exercise for sim pilots -- a 1 G roll
Jose, I suspect the physics the sims use for coordinated flight at
least is pretty reasonable. Since stall characteritics are a function
of rigging (I doubt two Mooneys with their laminar flow wings stall the
same) I'm not sure how well a sim game does that.
If a credible sim jock claimed his G meter stayed fixed at 1 when he
flew his 172, F16 -- or maybe his Harrier -- though a roll, I'd be
willing to say QED.

It's a certification limitation, Jose.Ok, then your airplane may well have the control authority to do it, you
just (wisely) don't want to find out the hard way. However, when you
asked:
The question I asked at the start wasn't if the flight path exists --
it does -- but rather, is there an airplane that has the control
authority to fly it.it implies that you didn't believe spam cans could. Now I understand
the real question is whether the sim of such spam cans can, by which you
may infer that the real one can (or that the sim is inaccurate - I don't
know how you'd pick between them)
