| Re: How do flies do it?
| Like most of you, I've come across the mindless chat which pilots drive themselves crazy with when they're forced to hang about waiting to scramble.
The funniest discourse which I have heard concerned itself with the conundrum about how a fly lands on a ceiling. I believe that it does an incomplete Immelman roll and then lands on its forward undercart first.
Is this true?
