Many years ago I flew the SU-29 which is the two seat variant of the SU-26 that the SU-31 is based on. What amazed me most was the roll rate which is ridiculous. When someone else is at the stick it really stresses your neck muscles. When you don't yank the stick yourself it is like hitting a piece of rail with your wing when abruptly leveling your wings after a series of rolls - bam, head in the plexiglass, from 360 degrees/s to zero in no time
