I am amazed at how calm the pilot appears throughout the loop. I've
only flown aerobatics once, but my head was on a swivel - constantly
trying to figure out which way was up.
What caused the accident? I would be interested to hear additional
details. Obviously the pilot got too low on the back side of the
loop, but what caused this?
-Inadequate height before starting the loop
-Inadequate pull during the loop
-Stall
-Nathan
