The maneuverablity of these giant plane is astonishing. But of course even with commercial airlines it is something else. Yes, ago, I was on a flight when some dumb private pilot strayed right into the path of the plane I was on as we were aappraching (737). To avoid a collision, the pilot pulled up and away, after yelling, hold on!Man, no carnival ride could match that turn. Luckily even the flight attendents were buckled in.

The Boeing 707 does a barrel roll on (or one of) its first flight(s).
