172 Aerobatics Down Low

If that doesn't send Arlo running to the computer
to type up a registered letter ...

Note that the 172 has been modified with a smoke
system.  I might also suggest an AGM battery and
an air-oil slobber pot (a la 801), to stop it from dumping
out all the oil on the bottom of the left stabilizer during
hammerheads.  I might also suggest a G-meter.

Remember that a 172 is rated for +4.4G in the
utility category, which this fellow almost certainly
was.  I didn't see any snap rolls (inside or outside)
or any other torsional loads.

I might mention that what he's doing really isn't
very hard.  Ask any TC Inspector to demonstrate -
it's not like they can't fly a 172, the easiest airplane
in the world to fly, right?

Entertaining for sure. Love the HH. Looks like he is doing it in the slo-mo

172 does not have much rudder, especially that
stupid swept tail the marketing people came up
with.

C206 rolls pretty well,
The BN2 I'm told doesn't. however I have it on good authority she loops just fine.
