Many years ago there was an article in Air Clues (under the 'I learn't about flying from that!' banner) describing a junior pilot looping the Javelin out in the Far East, and discovering most of the reasons for not doing so, together with the subsequent discussion in the crew room.

PS - remember those days when that was the place where you heard all the old tales and discovered what you really could and could not do with an aircraft.
