If this happens- I can see a brilliant moment where someone floats a pie over a model's face in zero-g, then the pilot pull out of the dive 'switching' on the gravity and delivers the goods.

Did you ever play those "thrust" games years ago in the 80s lol it would never end up on her face
It's a fun idea -- and really expensive (typical parabolic flight costs around 30 K)...and there are serious challenges with momentum and coordination...some gags might work; notice how the 'gunge' spatters everywhere but manages to get the performer if he is centered in the path of the falling slime/paint (the camera angle appears to be 'side long' but it is actually above the group, facing down on a vertically tilted set that looks like normal airplane seating).
Thus, I suspect, that many pie gags would miss their targets...unless it was a pie barrage.
Note: each parabolic arc (in which one is in free-fall) lasts only about 20 seconds, and a typical flight makes just 6 arcs (so, 30 K for 2 minutes of free-fall)...so, that's 6 20 second gags; you would need to set up that barrage either in advance or hurriedly while the plane is climbing. Tricky.
My numbers might be off, slightly (don't ask how I know this stuff).
