RE: Good Ali save.
Hahaha !!!
Ali, watching the video again, and remembering the inlet implosion during the knife edge in my T-33; my theory is that there is a very very low pressure generated by the front of the fuselage at a certain angle of attack (when on its side of course). That nose section is thin and tall.
That could explain both incidents.
What I wonder is, why it doesn't happen always when in knife edge.
Probably, if done at higher speed, the lower angle of attack needed to hold altitude does not generate the sudden vacuum. ????? Any thoughts?
Now that you have experience with the recovery, I guess you can experiment with different speeds.... but higher.... LOL.
