Default Snaproll a Hawker 800XP?

Talkin' to Nelon (X Rated) the other day he mentioned this story to me and it sounded so unbelievable that I had to google it. Sure enough, true story with pictures to boot.

Man if that's what he did to a Hawker, just imagine if they tried that in a Cessna product. Yikes! With the extremely low prices of business jets on the market today I can't see how fixing that plane would be economically viable.

Dude! I guess the creaking and popping sounds in the cabin weren't any sign to the captain that this plane probably isn't the best aerobat. I'm glad it held together.

I have some HS-125 time and it is hard to believe that anyone is capable of doing this kind of damage, I would like to see what this Captain could do in a Falcon 10?
