I had the honor to watch Bob Hoover do this at an Airshow at Latrobe, PA back in the 80's. He flew a Shrike Commander, did several stunts, including rolls and a loop, then landed and rolled right to the center of the apron to a stop without engine or brakes. After landing and coming down the taxiway, he was going so slow I didn't think he would make it, but he did, rolling to a stop right where he was suppose to be. Just amazing!!!!!!!!!!
