Exclamation 2dots

I can't believe that there aren't more people who are appalled by this sort of cowboy nonsense. As someone said though, pity the poor fella who is in that aircraft when the stress catches up with it later and its airframe fails. It's not smart to do this sort of thing and anyone caught should lose their licence for a very long time. I was teahing a young bloke to fly many years ago, and woke to the news one morning about a light aircraft crash, killing both occupants. Turned out that my student was the hapless passenger in a non aerobatic aircraft with a non aerobatic pilot who decided to show off at a low level and killed them both. Don't encourage this sort of behaviour and dob the idiots in if you hear of it. You may save some lives someday.
