Default Zero G profile

In a previous article, "mike regish" said:
What's the best way to fly a zero G parabola? My kids are hooked on them and
they're actually learning some science from it. I'd like to get a little
more duration without getting too fast.

I usually do a little climb until the speed bleeds off some and then push
over firmly. Should I pull the power over the top as I'm pushing?


Why don't you get up to full speed, pitch up, then push down a bit? That
way you can get negative G's on the way up while you're bleeding off the
speed.

moistened bint lobbed a "Perl for Dummies" at me, they'd put me away!
