Well, its not mine, and not much of a pic, but I'm rebuilding it for a friend. I just could resist the new forum!
Passing in a low inverted fly-by, "Dumb-thumbed" into the asphalt runway, Destroying right wing, engine mount, and damaging tail and fuse. Oh well... :

The president of our flying club. I guess he was "zoning out" when he applied up elevator instead of down....

I personally think it was a massive gravity storm. They are invisible, you know, and can take a plane out at any time. I personally have flown through several and barely escaped with my life....I mean my plane....LOL

Yeah, thats it.... tell him it was a massive gravity storm. No way to save the plane during one of them.

I was flying in minot ND, when my father was in the Airforce.
We tried some high speed inverted flying when my dad had
me do some low high speeds passes. To make a short story
shorter, we ended the day picking up my nelson speed 40
and what was left of my scat cat from underneath the runway. You could say pulling up when you are inverted is not the way to go.
10 years later he still yells "Don't forget you inverted"
