I've done loops and rolls in our 120HP Tornado. If you pull out early and high in the loop so it's not a round loop, you pull less than 2G's on the pull-out. It's good practice for learning round loops so you don't pull more G's than your head can handle.
if performed correctly a loop is a low g manouer. but, stuff it up and fall of the top and it becomes a high g.....not sure about doing a loop in one. looked cool though
Wow, pretty cool. Did the pilot approach the G-limit or the VNE? Is the tornado considered/designed for acro? IOW, did the motor sputter or the oil present a problem?
Ya really! How in the heck did the plane deal with that much stress! I'm about to get my private license and probably getting the titan tornado two with rotax 912/s engine!

I believe the Titan tornado is rated for something like 6 or 8 positive g's. Its not fully aerobatic but it can do stuff like that.
