I have just tried the parabolic flight for simulating zero G for 17-20 seconds,this flight is used to train cosmonauts before their missions.
The actual flight is made with the Illiushin  IL-76 cargo plane,however I used the default B777 in this flight.....

The flight begins in a nice morning climbing to 16,000

Leveled at 16,000

Now for the fun part,pull the elevator until the aircraft reaches about 45 degrees angle of attack(full throttle)

Now elevators down just to the point to reach -1G,this will "eliminate" the normal 1G and the sensation will be as in space
Did you have your brakefast?

Now the recovering(this is made with full spoilers not to reach overspeed)

Now climbing back and starting all over again(I spared you guys) .
Back on the glideslope at UUEE

very nice.  ;) good job you didnt overstress the aircraft

which panel is that?

Nice Flying! I did something crazy too, I took an FA/18-F Super Hornet to 40,000 feet then I cut the engines off and landed it on use of the the wind to keep it from falling hard and crashing! Should have took pics!  :'(

Nothing like some negative Gs to help you find your cornflakes

Yeah not as bad, with overstress on, that
