Any plane can do that, it's just the manuverability that the captain does...

However, I read about a plane that was in developement that will go above the atmosphere, allowing for weightlessness. The reasoning behind it was to advoid air resistance...

Interesting. The Vomit Comet...in space.

The point of the vomit comet is that you are plummeting, if you aren't plummeting, it's not a vomit comet.

Off topic, if I may say so myself.

*raises hand* I got some!

-Your mom has given up on making your bed for you, because every time she does, it ends up the exact same way: a circle of blankets and pillows with weird object in the middle.
-You've posted more than 3 times on this thread.
-You've named all your stuffed animals. And you remeber them. And you have like.. 40.
-When falling asleep, your butt twitches; compensating for the lack of a tail.
-You hate backpacks, they cramp your wings hardcore.
-You have a major urge to run down and pouce all the little freshmen walking around....Fresh Meat...
-You're in marching band and you love to march backwards; being on your toes is so much more natural.
-You made a little notebook for things to add to this list when you think them up so you dont forget them.

-Robin Wayne Baily is somewhere on your hit list.
-You love shinies and would protect your collection with your life
-You scree when you're hungry
-You've ever hissed at someone if they startle you
-You've ever clacked your teeth together in annoyance and were uprised at how quiet the sound was
-You wish you had a more intimidating stare
-You have three sleeping positions -- curled up, stretched out as far as you can go, and standing up... and it irritates you that you can't sleep with your head under your arm
-You like your meat rare -- or raw
-Being on a plane makes you bawl uncontrollably because you want to fly by your own power

-Instead of packing gorp when you go hiking, you pack jerky and meatloaf sandwiches
-Your toes are strangely flexible
-When you were little, you swore to everyone you could fly -- you don't tell anyone now because they keep threatening to throw you in the nut house
-Stories that depict Gryphons, Dragons, and other fellow mythics as "evil" or the bad guys makes you mad... but stories about Unicorns as the protagonist just make you roll your eyes

-You write stories and poetry about Gryphons
