I don't know if 3D aerobatics have been defined. However, I feel hovering and Harrior flight cover the vast majority of it. In a hover, I'm good with believing the wing is producing no lift. However, in Harrior flight, is the wing really fully stalled?

I only do 3D manuvers on my G3.5 simulator. I own no airplanes capable of hovers or Harrier flight, and really have no interest in doing so. However, I am interested in the above question. I am also not against 3D!

Thanks for your opinion!

I did a search in yahoo and found some vidio of what a harrier flight is. It looks to me like there is lift on the wings even if it is just the air moving from the prop. Just my 2 cents.

Did some research and a very nice guy helped me find this link.
