Hello folks, Janks here, with a last minute requestial demand for something so simple, it shouldn't take but a few palm slaps to do. Janks needs the ability to fly upaside down.
Now mind you, this isn't to look pretty or be fancy in space. This isn't for a simple 'just because we cant right now' request either. NO. Janks is serious this time. This is a serious issue. Janks wants it taken seroiusly.
Janks has dropped his keys to half of his ships in his hanger and it fell down between the seat and the console, and his hand is too thick to stick down there and reach them. Seriously, this is a design flaw to many ships, and instead of changing ships it would help if we could just jerk the wheel to the left hard, or to the right harder, and keys and coins and jellybeans and and pens and stuff could easily just fall up and we could pick them back off the windshield, tuck them away and be about his business. Janks has tried to stick his hand in there, but not only is it too tight to reach it, but the upholstery is all sticky and gross due to spilled drinks and food particles that have accumulated over the years. There's also this funky smell that would not be wise to get on his skin, as the smell also seems to glow in the dark. And who ever thought that was even theoretically possible? Smells can't be visual, but this one is!
Janks understands this chagne will have some negative drawbacks. For one, all those old moldy raisenettes and fedo-poo and chewed-up-spat-out-fingernails and other various gross things come out as well. Worse, if your seat belt isn't on good you may be face-planting on your own windshield and have to roll around like an idiot to get back in the seat, leaving yourself unable to watch ship scanners and possibly get yourself into heaps of troubles and next thing you know you awake in your clone and YOU STILL DON'T HAVE YOUR KEYS.
But Janks is willing to take this risk. Space is scary and stuff, and is willing to risk it all so please ships must go upaside down.
That and if you are ever caught in Janks's scramble range, you can also get a nice view of his butt pressed against his windshield as he orbits you UPASIDE DOWN! Hopefully those will be raisenettes you see stuck to him, if not, then maybe you won't want to hear his ransom demands.
Janks is a natural sex object. When he ask the ladies for sex, they object!

Deep thought.
What if everyone in EVE is already flying upside down? How would we know?

It't obvious, you silly. All the flying traffic signs would be backwards :).

Postin in a Janks thread.
Also supporting it as I am a very big important space pilot and am far too busy wasting time conforming to your conventions on ship attitude control to get anything done. Also we have artificial gravity and such so no big deal either.

There's one tragic and fatal flaw in your plan....
The keys won't fall out, they'll stay exactly where they are....

In principle, I like this idea. However... what are you doing flying around with your ship keys in ships other than the ones they're used for. Sounds inconvenient to have to go get a new set made if you lose the ship that happens to hold the keys.

Janks is glad that you asked a serious question in relations to his serious demands.
As Janks always tells himself when he's alone with his thought, "It's all about the ladies", because Janks is a ladies man. Currently there is no lady, but the answer to your question is also one that possibly can solve his ladylackage. There is nothing like a big wad of keys in your pocket as you strut around the local spacebar.
Now Janks knows what you are thinking, the ladies ask him "Is that a huge wad of keys in your pocket or are you happy to see me?" Well - this may surprise you, but Janks just pulls his keys out and says "It's not just a wad of keys baby, it's a HUGE WAD OF KEYS!" And then he jingles them to accentuate the largeness wadness. Don't get Janks wrong, he is happy to see the ladies, but well... let's say that the ship builders changed the insane speeds ships usta could go with polycarbs, nanofibers, overdrives, and all those other fancy pancy modules because quite frankly our meatsacks were not built to withstand speeds of that magnitude! There's a bit of shrinkage down there, and not due to the cold harshness of space but due to being inverted from insane speeds repeatedly! This one time Janks got his Nano-Curse up to 10,000/ms and damn near thought he was going to give himself babies due the inversion going COMPLETE. But then Janks remembered he can't physically have babies... But he sorta did find himself confused as it wasn't as bad as thought it would be. Then Janks wondered hey, maybe Janks can enjoy the company of men more than just sitting around playing cards and drinking and watching ...oh wait, Janks is getting off the topic. It never did become an uncomfortable issue to talk about with corp mates, after all Janks is in Veto.
Anyhow, Janks likes to pull out his huge wad of keys, as he said and jingle them ferociously because he accepts that his huge ship collection is nothing more than compensation for the shortcomings.
No pun intended.

Perhaps all we really need is a barrel roll ability.

No, no, you must mean hot shots.

Although, towards the OP's point, while valid, I must observe a problem of sorts. The gravity inside our ships is not governed by that inside the station or worse, celestial bodies. Imagine the mess that would cause...
So this flying upside down business, while cool, would not do much good towards the whole key situation.
It would be beneficial to have a 'reverse gravity' button. Maybe a nice big red one? Like, right next to the self destruct button?
