Thankfully it's pretty difficult to flip a PA, I can say that I never have, at least in open water. I have practiced flipping my PA over and then tried righting it, and it was pretty easy with the help of my bow line I always have tied to the front.

The bow line is just looped around the front handle, and in the event of an open water capsize, I would just unloop the handle from the front and loop it around the side handles, flip the rope around to the other side and flip the PA back over.
