Hmm. I checked and couldn't find that, in the AFM anyway. :P If you've got a reference I'll look it up, but I don't think it's there (especially considering I've done a good number of times).

Love that act-- Abbotsford Airshow?

How about a Cessna L-19.

They go all over of course. They've done Abbotsford but they're based out of Minot N.D.
I went out for a flip with Kent in that thing in 1992 when they were out my way. Very impressive what he can do with it. He does a dead-stick routeen too where he cuts the engine at about 3000 AGL and does aerobatics all the way down. He also lands on top of a motorhome blasting down the rwy. That's on youtube, of course.

L-19 is a good one. '305' I think its called as a civilian airplane. I've seen one on floats afew years back and recently, a limited category machine with an IO-540 in it. What a rocket that must be!

Just went through the brand new AFM from the Diamond site, no such thing is printed.
