Excalibur, thank you for your input.
If I've offended you, I'm almost certain you're a Liberal.
I'll stop there with calling YOU names.
Shows a decided lack of tact, lack of netiquette and an insensitive nature ....

Cobra Bill,
I've flown plenty of simulators, a few with full motion.
I'll be the first to admit they can induce some white-knuckle moments, but it ain't the same as being strapped in and hanging on for your life.

I still cannot fathom what advantage you believe being inverted would give.
The wing - even on aerobatic machines - is most efficient when upright.

The asymmetrical drag on one side and complete absence of lift on the other would render even a high-horsepower machine like that a lawn dart.
Time for a silk ride....

The wing snapping off would also take the landing gear attach-point with it.
A wing spar failure isn't gonna leave a perfectly good wheel out there to function even in a good landing.

I've seen a few wing spar failures in sport planes, 10 years ago an early Van's RV-8 crashed just down the road from me.
I was looking at building one when it happened, and did my own root-cause analysis by talking to everybody I could find.

So you play Devil's Advocate for kicks and try to perpetuate this - why?
