its not really a jet wash but when u go really high in a jet and all of a sudden start evasive actions i lose control of my jet and start hoping i dont go into the redzone. I can rarely get out of the uncontroled spin so to all the pilots out there, can u help me?
Well for one drop your speed try reversing but I never have this problem anymore because I can make it to 158,000 feet with a J-10 on Wake
your best shot is to drop your speed as much as you can, until you can bring your indicator level with the artificial horizon. Once you stop spinning around speed back up.
You probably wont be able to do this before going out of bounds and being executed, but Ive survived a few times.
and 158000 feet? thats pretty impressive.

i guess i shouldnt spin so much
pssshhh i reached 600,000 and trust me , i left for the toilet, some cuponoodles, and a drink and im still falling towards the ground

the only way i have managed to get out of a flat spin is to completely leave everything alone..let it sort itself out..if you are lucky, you wont be out of bounds.
you cant. you'll just end up in a flat spin, headed out to sea. Then when u bail out, your co-pilot will smash his head on the canopy and break his neck. Sorry, its some sad shit when that happens.
how to get out of jetwash?
bail out!
bail out!

reduce speed, when ur altitude is at about 600-700 start accelerating again. Try it a few times and u'll get a hang of it
what the ****!!!?!!?!?!?! 600000 feet. right. The highest i've been is... uh... 2000?
Just cut all power, tease your nose downwards and it'll settle itself. And pray you don't go out of bounds.
How to get out of a jetwash... Uh.. Remember to pay and tip the indian workers who washed your jet?

i've GOT to try this in a full server and piss everyone off
How do you get that high? I havent spent all that much time in jets and the highest ive ever gotten is 2-3k, and i certainly didnt survive.
It's called a flatspin.
I've found that the best way to get out of it is to NOT use afterburner. I know you want to but DON'T. Just continually try to point your nose down(push your joystick/mouse forward) and this way, you usually end up going out of bounds and then back in bounds and then you should level out and be able to regain control. I almost always get out of it using this method, and I never touch my throttle, I leave it at full speed(infact, it's ALWAYS in that position, only noobs slowdown to shoot helos/bomb )

i got crappy vid cards and i never slow down
cutting throttle is def only for noobs lol
oh yea and maj.do, whatever you do, you shouldn't really go that high and lose controll
don't loop-de-loop at high alt.. just spin upside down and head straight down

Well how to get out of the flat spin should be clear right now.
The problem of getting out of bounds and dying can partly be countered by ALWAYS beeing a medic when flying the plane. The healing will buy you some time to recover from the red zone.

One time I was flying, and I had a guy right behind me, and a guy behind him, and a guy behind him. I don't know if it went enemy/friendly/enemy or enemy/enemy/friendly, but they were all behind me. I started evasive manuvers and it worked for a bit, but eventually I lost control. Soon enough I was out of bounds, and see "cablecopulate is no more." Then you see "pilot 1 is no more" "pilot 2 is no more" "pilot 3 is no more." Good times.
