Over the shoulder performance?

Interesting. So if the Bucc was difficult to loop what happened when the pull up to toss a weapon and depart the target area scenario took place?

I always thought that the toss bombing manoeuvre involved pulling up on the command from the strike sight until weapon release when the pull continued (as in a loop) until pointing in the homeward direction roll out immelman like and return to low level ASAP heading back home for tea and medals (or at least decontam and jammy doughnuts).

So if the upside down bit at the top of a loop was scary, how popular was toss bombing among Bucc crews?
