A reminder to all posters that the British press will undoubtedly monitor social media (yes, also this PPRuNe forum!) for quotes and the like.
If they do, could they note the following trivial, but annoying mistakes in terminology.

1. The last time anyone in aviation referred to "looping the loop" was c 1925.

2. "Stunt" is reminiscent of barnstorming displays from the same period. "Manouevre" is one of several possible alternatives.

3. The word is "aerobatic" not "acrobatic".

All above from BBC news today.
