Rolling a non aerobatic C150 is no biggie but it could point to the old

Decades ago, when I was training, my flight instructor attempted a loop in a
C-150; we fell out of the top, and dirt rained down on us. At the time, I
didn't know better.

There's a lot of people out here who don't know about that
Mine was a demonstrated stall with a pax and I didn't secure the covers
on the ashtrays

And I never flew an aircraft with a 'glass' cockpit, saw some, made
enthusiastic noises and that was about it

I started when the airfield was non audio. The only Approach aid was the
light gun and the Controller in the tower
