    All jumbo jets can easily make that roll, it’s a 1g maneuver, there is 0 extra stresses on the wings compared to straight level flight. That being said … Alvin ‘Tex’ Johnston has always been a personal hero of mine. What an amazing human being.

    It was an Aileron roll not a barrel roll! Typical media lack of effort of a great historic event!
