looks like he pulls up to go into an inverted flat spin and then snaps the plane to get it into the harrier

Looks like he pulls close to vertical and begins with a really deep lomecavek (SP?) and jumps out of everything but the elevator to swing the tail around for the exit, while working the elevator and aileron a little to keep it right. I see he's trying different variations on the exit, I think it'd be cool to get it in to the tumble and work it into a Knife Edge spin. Interesting maneuver!

I use to do that when learning a lomecevak. It looked just like that because I never could do them right! I called them a Vuckedit up. Damn, I was "cool" and did not even know it!
Now I have to start those again, if I don't fold the wings up like I did before. Both times!

Hey guys,
I tried this on the sim and it turns out that it is pretty simple. You pull vertical then go into a right or left knife edge spin. After about one rotation, reverse it and the plane will flip and head downwards. One more rotation and you pull out.
Basically, pull vertical, shove both sticks into the top right corners and after one rotation, shove them into the top left corners, then it will flip it at the top. You could easily keep it in the knife edge spin on the way down.

It's pretty fun and looks cool.
