I took my flight review last week which includedunusual attitudes and the GN-1 stayed together.My instructor friend showed me a maneuver which Iactually saw the airspeed indicator go to zero "0"and he had full control of the plane. He dropped thenose and rolled out. The GN-1 dropped a few feetand fully recovered. He did that three times. I wasimpressed. However, he told me not to attemptthe maneuver, but just wanted to demonstrate howeffective the control surfaces were.Have fun building or flying this weekend.Mike KingGN-177MKDallas----- Original Message -----
