To inform the debate, the military definition is/was "manouevres exceeding 90 degrees in pitch or roll".

This was used for the (RAF) Gazelle displays in the 70s/80s, which got around the then accommpanying rule "aerobatic manouevres are prohibited in helicopters."

..... and then along came the Lynx .......
