Talk:Immelmann turn
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The maneuver was likely not invented by Immelman, nor perhaps even practiced by him, though the story is pervasive. http://www.acepilots.com/wwi/ger_immelmann.html I have seen text references to an Allied pilot named Himmelman as the turn's inventor, but cannot confirm this online. Will attempt to locate the book and furnish references.12.36.123.254 00:18, 20 June 2006 (UTC)Automatic Slim

Technically, nobody invented it; however, Immelmann is credited as being the first pilot to demonstrate the maneuver. --emc! ╬ (t a l k) 01:07, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
