No, thats a cowl in the background......

I'm pretty sure that beer is responsible for the creation of the maneuver.

Beer is imperative for this maneuver...as a matter of fact, the more beer the better the maneuver looks, simple math.

I'm sure you mean while you're at home practicing on the simulator.

I now give you the "0 of 8"
Also, watch the end for set up tips from Innovator.

Ok seriously now, is there anyway to slow the video down (say half speed) so it can be studied a little?

Guys, I'm seeing a whole series on what we're talking about here. Innovator, perhaps you could run with the 0 tutorial. I'll handle the post-post stall. Guys, please slow down on the PM's, we only allow 200 per member without having to delete some. In an effort to answer some FAQ's from the 793 PM's I got this morning, here are some;

QuiQue, I'll have to get back to you. I'm not sure the turbo prop is capable of such low RPMs.

Shulman, No ! Blowing a sequence on purpose and getting all zeros is NOT the same as flying a 0.

Mark Leseberg, Sorry buddy, I'm too busy to travel for that much coaching. But thanks!

Animal, You'll just have to beg innovator, his call.

Frank Noll, You bet it's tough! I'll teach you but it will cost you $100. Get your Yak, buy $100 worth of fuel and PRACTICE!!!

Matt Chapman, Yes you may!! Go ahead and rock a 0 of 8 in the ACAP series!! I'm sure Innovator would be proud!!

I mastered the 0 of 0 torque roll years ago! I just got the 1 of 4 to landing down! Now we have a 0 of 8 and 0 of 16 I need to learn. How will I ever catch up to you masters. I quit!

For sale:

0% of a 40% Extra. Never flown hard. I am sure in the right hands it would be capable of a 0 of whatever.

Thanks,

Dan

Dan,

DO NOT TRY THE 0 of 16 WITHOUT MASTERING THE 0 OF 8.
I cannot stress this point enough.
This isnt your daddy's maneuver.

I have heard some talk of this being incorporated into the 06 Masters but so far, thats just a rumor.

Warren?

Do you really think I can be a big 0 or are you just saying that to be nice?

Maybe I will give it a few more weeks but if I don't see myself getting any closer to 0 i will have to reevaluate.

Dan the man, I'm encouraged by your new found hope. Let me publicly state for all to read. Regardless if you can fly the maneuvers or not, you are truly capable being a big ZERO in my book my brother! No get out there and REALLY do ZERO for the home team. We're counting on you!

Guys, the feedback to 0 and post-post-stall has been unreal!! We simply can't answer PM's,phones and emails fast enough. In an effort to create a gratuitous team, we've decided to create TEAM 0 !! That's right kids if you feel compelled to join our team, just sign up here. No meetings, no dues just all 0 all the time! I mean this when I say every member of this team truly mean 0 to us! We'll need shwag of course, so somebody feeling like doing 0 JUMP ON IT! Who's up for doing 0 ? I sure am!
