Right before you stall the beast and crash into the ground?

Depending on the ceiling in game, and the available upgrades to speed and maneuverability, even with "real physics" it should be possible, you just need enough altitude. And technically you wouldn't be able to do a pure aileron roll with a Gal, because of its design being meant to be stable. You would have to do a baileron roll (a mix between an aileron roll and a barrel roll, not exactly either of them but a combo).

While barrel rolls are cool and all, I'll be more impressed if someone performs Pugachev's Cobra in a Galaxy, while being intercepted.

Was gonna post "Vid?", then go proactive on my ass.

Nice maneuver... I'd be impressed if a Gal did that too =D

Shit...I would be happy if any of the aircraft can pull off that maneuver. Incredible pitch control FTW! Maybe the scythe will be able to do it.

It's been an old dream of mine to pull that off in a game. Got the mental image from an old black and white war film where it was used to drop speed. Thanks for putting a name to it.

In the interest of more information, take a gander:

After seeing that video I would say nerf LA. I mean he got like sevral dozen kills before he got kille way OP.

I'm going to assume that was sarcasm and not that you're illiterate and couldn't read the "NOT ACTUAL GAMEPLAY" in the bottom right.

But yeah, a glaxy roll seems doable at a high enough altitude.
