2 Brickbats Thrown:

  1. I read about somebody doing a barrel roll with a 707 during flight testing. Has anybody ever done one with a 747?

  2. That was the Boeing "Dash 80", which Tex Johnson barrel-rolled over Lake Washington in 1955 during a "seafair".

    Footage of the roll

    I don't know of anyone rolling anything else, other than a Concorde.
