Great stories! You can hover in a 172. Stalls pretty good when you try to get out of it, so even more fun. I went out with my buddy to help pay for the av gas and we were tooling around and he says "Look at the airspeed indicator" which read 0. He looked at me with an evil grin and says "Ready?" And before I could say anything we lost about 200 feet. Disclaimer: He is rated and we were in properly designated airspace. You should have been there for the decathalon!

Sorry, it was on the peg and the stall warning was going off. I'm not a pilot, just a passenger with a buck or two for gas. I looked at the gauge and heard the buzzer and a few seconds later we were falling so my senses were 'pretty engaged'. Fun, though, I also learned it was not a good idea to eat before going up to do acrobatics.

Negitive G's can ruin yr whole day......on a full stomach. Great stories , you really see the effect flying RC gliders from a slope . awsome to watch em hovering ... Torre Pines California ... perfect place to see this happen and over a nude beach no less ....... well it was when I flew there in early 80's.
