Fallen Angel Maneuver ?
A friend asked me what was this "Fallen angel" maneuver, but I've never hear
of it before. If someone knows what it is, I'd appreciate a description. A. |

Basically the plane is flown either upright or inverted wings level and power off into a stall. It is kept deep in the stall with the stick full aft or forward and the rudder is used to prevent a spin. Obviously you 'fall' like a leaf. Peter |

Apparently not. I asked him that even before I posted this question here.

Never heard of it...I too thought it was the Falling Leaf. Hmm... -John *You are nothing until you have flown a Douglas, Lockheed, Grumman or North American* |
