A first !

Sorry to bore you all- but! just done 5 solo loops in the Tiger. I have always hated aeros and they have always made me feel sick, but finally I had an instructor who "showed me the way" hooray! Thanks Chris.

Well done, must feel great, although straight and level for me!

I'm lucky 'cos I've had one of these from the start :D

You've obviously got your PPL (or a lot further on than me) :ok: ....My problem is that I haven't solo'd in anything so can't do anything on my own yet, let alone aero's :(

Brilliant Fun, isn't it????

Well done! Every time I fly one I am amazed by the small diameter of the loop. Only slightly larger than the Fokker tri-plane which appears to rotate around its c of g!

Oooops!!! - Mine are 1000ft in a Bulldog.

My instructor made me check the altimeter at the top and the bottom so that I'd know the height loss. :uhoh:
