I believe that CASA requires Tigers to comply with UK operational limitations which would be http://publicapps.caa.co.uk/AANDocs/...2556100000.pdf - flick manoeuvres not permitted and I note that G limits are "semi-aerobatic" so please do "not apply more g than is necessary"!

As for the Chipmunk, a friend in the UK told me: "as far as I am aware, all Chipmunks owners in Aus should have purchased an Approved Flight Manual for each Chipmunk T Mk 10 from de Havilland Support Ltd. CASA insisted some years ago that such a document be prepared, even though the Chipmunks in Australia do not conform to the approved design standard in the UK ....". Not sure if the true sutuation.
