The inverse is also true when the aircraft is in inverted flight.
This simple and elegant solution was only a stopgap: it did not allow inverted flight for any length of time.
It would also be the first exhibition of inverted flight in a monoplane.
For inverted flight, there is a small header tank near the pilot's feet.
In the Decathlon, the header tank holds enough fuel for about two minutes of inverted flight.
It is started pneumatically, and remains fully operational during inverted flight.
All of these changes were made in order to allow for extended inverted flight, a mode not possible in the earlier models.
The design changes were intended to produce an aircraft capable of more complex maneuvers and better performance in inverted flight.
There are many ways to enter inverted flight.
The Cuban 8 is a combination move involving both regular and inverted flight.
