Agree with Dar above.
Two offences in that youtube video. Unauthorised low flying and aerobatics in a "non aerobatic" a/c.
The problem i have with the aerobatics, is this. Even a loop, flown properly, you shouldn't pull anymore G than a good steep turn. However, you only have to screw an aeobatic manoeuvre up, then maybe overstrrss the aircraft. You will only know how much, if you have a g meter installed.
If overstressing is suspected, is the cowboy going to go to engineering and say, "been doing aeros when i shouldn't have done can you check it over?". Hell no, he's going to clam up. That folks is where the real problem lies.
Aircraft spars, metal or composite, have a very long memory. Years ago a Cessna 180, flew to bits with an inosent pilot aboard. The aircraft had been known to have been aero batted, years previously.
Don't do it,people. Think of the .consquences.
Authorised, operational low flying can only be carried out with any degree of safety, only after hours and hours of practise. You only have to have a bird strike in a sensive part of the aircraft, for example. The more high you have, the better. Target fixation and cables/wires are other risks along with a host of others.
