how to perform a knife edge.....uhh.....1 quarter roll to the left or right...so youre wings are vertical.....then apply enough rudder to keep youre altitude!
eg. rolling to the left requires right rudder

That might be a problem if you're in an aerobatic display team

Look under FS2004 on this page
http://www.simviation.com/fshelp.htm for my aerobatics tutorial which covers everything you'll need to know

I don't think that FS flight models are accurate enough to be able to fly a nice knife edge. There may be some add-on aircraft that are able to do it though... I've been trying to fly knife edge lots of times, but even full rudder won't keep my nose from dropping down. Very different from the stuff you see at aerobatics shows.

I doubt the lift component generated by a fuselage on its side would have been modelled with any degree of accuracy in FS.
