Title: Whats this?
Post by: gatso on December 05, 2002, 04:15:11 PM

Bit different with this one. I don't know for sure myself, Heard a number of things that it might be on my trawl round the WWW but nothing stands out.

Chakra and Culbit were both mentioned but I think they are both a bit flatter, like the well known Cobra but with a full rotation.

Has it even got a name?

(You can fly it in a 262 easy. The total no skill way is; Offline - 262 - 25% fuel - Get speed up to 350 on the deck, pull up into a 50-80 degree climb - Hit Auto attitude hold (shift-x) - keep throttle at 100% it flys itself through every time.)

Nah. Seen Su-27s and Mig-29s do cobras at airshows. There isn't a full rotation just a pull up to get the aircraft flying belly first followed by a nose down recovery.

Super cobra? maybe. I'm sure the Russians call the full rotation one something different. I'm not sure this counts though because of the large vertical required to pull it off.
