Anybody remember the Robinson Loop? Used to teach it in the early days on 228 OCU until some dilligent chap looked carefully at the Release to Service. It was the school solution to min time 180 turns - if below 450kts one rolled rapidly to 135 deg bank angle in full burner and pulled 19 AOA until achieving 8.5G, then controlled bank angle with rudder maintaining 19AOA/8.5G until the reciprocal was reached. If above 450kts, one rolled to 45 deg bank and pulled 8.5G until approaching 19AOA. With skillful anticipation, one then overbanked with rudder using full burner to maintain 450/8.5G until the reciprocal was reached.

Rolling G limit greatly exceeded!

I blame Doctor Death!
