The Javelin! Was it the only RAF fighter ever to be banned from some aerobatic manoeuvres?

I believe , and I may have read it here somewhere, that a USAF exchange pilot flying Javelins commented "it was the only aircraft he'd ever flown where the amount of power available perfectly matched the drag".
