Learned a lot from the F-18 and nailed the Top Gun 2 Inversion maneuver

This can happen to pretty much any airframe whether it’s a fighter jet, a bush plane or an airliner. They call this a stall

This goes for pretty much anything that requires hands on flying… At the risk of sounding all guru-y, I say flying a fighter jet is flying an extension of your body…that travels at mach 1.5…and has bombs.

And someone is going to mention it one way or another but if you decide to take the next step at fighter jets (or anything military), look into DCS. There’s a very well modeled F18 you can try out for free for two weeks and is otherwise high fidelity. MSFS is a ways out from high fidelity fighter jets and imo DCS has effectively cornered that market.

Now do it around Lake Tahoe (Where those scenes in TG2 were filmed)
