60 degree level turn requires 2G input. Anything greater will cause a climb. As the G load goes up, the stall speed increases. The 2 G loading is not automatic with 60 degree bank. It requires increased backpressure. At 06:12 AM 4/7/2004 -0400, you wrote: >> I flew the T-34 through departure stalls, which when held were violent.

Without pulling back on the stick, the nose will drop and the V V will go negative rapidly. I took my private ticket ride in a T-34. I also, have time in the T-33, T-37, and T-38 while getting my Air Force wings. They are all planes. From a J2 Cub to a B747, increasing bank requires pulling back on the stick to maintain level flight. Larry Severson Fountain Valley, CA 92708 (714) 968-9852 lar...@socal.rr.com
