Couple of rented Cessna 172's being put through their paces.

Having fun in the wild blue yonder. :)

Are you fucking retarded or something? What on earth do you think you're fucking doing? Not only is this entirely illegal and insanely stupid, you don't know how much damage you've caused these aircraft. What if you overstressed something slightly? What if you started a crack in a spar? All it'll take is a hard landing and then the next time someone tries anything more than a 40 deg. turn he'll rip the wing off. What the fuck are you doing? It's rented. Moron.

@blueb0g - WHAT IF WHAT IF WHAT IF??

What if you weren't such a sackless lemming? That'd be awesome.

And it's not me flying, or recording the video. Kindly go fuck yourself. :)

Trust me you did more harm on The airframe learning to land.

Most of us rent aircraft, and take family and friends. I dont want some jackass flying my rental aircraft outside what the aircraft was certified for. Some people just lack respect.

@blueb0g the barrel roll is a 1G maneuver moron. It didn't do any damage.

[jimmythesnagglepuss]

this video is great HAHA these are true bruiser pilots. I just finished completing my private license and the training definitely told us to never do anything demonstrated in the video hahaha

For those saying an aileron roll is a 1G maneuver, you are meaning to say that a barrel roll is a 1G maneuver. There is a difference between an aileron roll and a barrel roll.

@v6greenfbird95 What facts is that statement based on?

[wolf7x6777]

@blueb0g Are you stupid man a 172 can do a 90 deg bank and 90 deg pitch its all about how many g's iv been in a 172 over 10 times when it was rolled and put in to a spin and half cubins and hammer heads . they can take a beating

[jleebesaw]

@jakeharvey yea me too!

[tigerswede3]

@blueb0g you aren't going to overstress a 172 with an aileron roll. Performed correctly, it is a positive g maneuver, as is a loop: both of which 172s have done many times without damage. They are usually rated between 4+ and 2-. You just can't stay inverted long whilst performing -g maneuvers, or your utility fuel tanks and oil will say bye bye. Get inverted tanks....................

A properly executed alieron roll is a +1g maneuver. Stall spins cause way more stress on the aircraft. Jesus, look at some of the student pilot's landings! Stress on the aircraft, give me a break. I've created more stress on an aircraft taxing than performing a roll. The engineers who developed the C 172 knew what they were doing. This aircraft will handle a lot more than you think. This video looks like a couple of guys having a good time...give them a break.

I'm training to get my ATP right now at UND. We're training in the 172's, I'm tempted to knock out my instructor on my next flight and do this too!

Poor.
