Here's my ugliest RV picture...
I was getting some aerobatic instruction this afternoon. We were doing cuban eights and I kept having trouble keeping my plane on a heading as I rolled out. My instructor kept telling me to unload the elevator before I begin my roll, but I wasn't getting it.
After making five or six attempts, I was trying to unload the elevator, and pushed it too hard. Ended up with -0.6 G's, and spit about two cups of oil all over my windscreen, firewall, and fuselage.
Took me a couple of hours to get most of the oil wiped down. I'm guessing it will be weeks before I get all of it out of the nooks and crannies.
