It's just a 60 degree bank, nice and legal.  Can't quite make out his speed, but I expect he'd enter with enough in the bank to deal with the increased stall speed.

My instructor had me bump up against 60 degrees during my training (any higher and we'd need parachutes) a couple times, it's quite a view for a non-acro pilot.

Then all is well!  I've been through a couple of (what looked like) 45+ maneuvers as a passenger in big jets.  It's a rush.

You'd barely notice you were in the turn if you didn't know it.  Kinda like how if you drive on a racetrack you don't notice the bank because of the forces at work in the turn.

Tis a DA-2000.

I was just crawling around one the other day.  It's the business.

Surely your king air guy lets you have a little fun on empty legs, Cav.  Not balls...just fun.  I wouldn't want to fly with someone who wanted to prove how big his balls were.

With no pax...the world is your oyster, though.  Try this...if you climb fast enough you'll make your datablock on the radar screen burp and you'll hear ATC ask you about your altitude.  Depends on their system I guess but around 9,000ft/min seems to do the trick.  If you're level down low and cooking along...just pitch up to the blue line and watch your altimeter start cranking.
