--> RV9-List message posted by: Leland <federigo@pacbell.net>
Here is a post that I copied a year ago from one of the lists. I slip
comfortably in my -9 and it works fine, but watch the nose.
Leland
RV9A with 34 hours
Yes full flap slips work just fine with the 9a, I have heard from others
that some of the other RVs dont slip well, but my 9a seems to nicely
come down if you slow it a bit and throw it into a slip.Now, cross
controlled stalls, thats another matter. There I was at 6000ft doing my
flight test cards like a good little test pilot... Hum ok, time for the
cross controlled stall series, slow down, feed in rudder and aileron
until fully crossed, keep pulling... holding.... bam Im inverted
looking up/down at the ground! Yikes, continue the roll through to right
side up. WOW what what that all about? Well, climb back to 6000 and try
it again, same thing... Hum, note to self, never feed in full rudder and
aileron while in the traffic pattern.Now dont get me wrong, you have to
have the nose way up, everything is looking very strange and feeling
totally out of any sense of normal before you even get close to this
happening, but it was fun! Andy

Howdy,
New to the list. I am considering an RV9a (as opposed to a tattered
old certified plane). I have a couple of questions, one regarding the
above statement. Due to the experimental nature it seems that there
would be a bit of the unknown when performing maneuvers such as these.
So, how do you conduct such "experiments" without worry of
over-stressing the a/c?
Secondly, I understand that the -9 is not fully aerobatically rated.
My assumption is the longer wingspan. Is there anything else? Is there
anything a person could reasonably do during the building process to
bring it up to aerobatic standards? Anybody know what +/- g's a -9 is
rated for?
Thanks for your time!
Regards, Ron Tyler

The -9 is rated for +4,4 and -1,8 G.
The wing skins on the -7 (aerobatic one) is thicker than the 9s wing skin.

So he went inverted and didn't rip the wings off ? I didn't know the 9 could
do that safely.. is a roll considered aerobatic ?
