Now try it with the realism settings at maximum. Using non-acrobatic aircraft for such things, indicates a (Dare I say it?) childish approach to flying.

and guess what IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I also like flying the jets upside down

I'm like yeppppppppppppppppppppppeeeeeeeeeeeeee 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

It appears there are now three types of people who use FS. Those who think it's a simultaor. Those who think it's a game. And finally, those who think it's a toy. 🙄

Don't forget to tidy up your train set before you go to bed.

Hay guys jokes aside... it is possible to loop a non reinforced Cessna... and I am talking out of real life experience. Thought I would never do that again after checking the plane on the ground after landing. I found a few pins missing at the root of the wings. Never try it!!! 😎

I agree with the non sarcasm remarks.. live and let die.. let people express their opinions... it's a free world (most of it) and a free forum.

Well, I do admit, that is fun 🙂

Guest Guest

Would of cost me more to do it for real and I can't be harmed in a Sim 😀

I take the cessna 172 up then dive and do a cool loop to loop then make an impressive cockscrew after.

So much fun 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

Flying is boring, but this makes the game more interesting

Also no where else can you watch a 747 do some cool manuevors

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

You all need to get a grip.

I personally and done a loop in a C-172--its a risk!
You can easily overstress the aircraft on the bottom end of the loop due to airspeed and g forces.
However it can be done. Same as rolls, immelmans, etc
You are all jumping the guy over doing a loop--remember the PRO pilot who Rolled a 707?
Bob Hoover did things in a stock twin, that shouldnt have been done either.

I have seen a B1B bomber do a flyby real low, go to full burners on the pass, nose up to vertical , and wingover the top near stall--it can be done

BUT BE AWARE--just because you can do something in the sim, dont EVER thing you can do it real life!

Don't worry, some of these posts indicate the poster doesn't have a real life. 😂

Lol or the guest poster is just a typical forum troll. Wink Come now you have to see that Crash. 😎

When I get home I'm trying a loop in a 747 weeeeeeeee 😂

Just kidding. Though I did install the SR-71 Blackbird plane on the web for FSX, pumped up the thrust to 80,000 per engine, turned off realism, and flew the thing to 18 million feet. Ok well not really, I flew it to 200,000 then there was no air and the plane just spun the rest of the way.

I have to admit it was quite entertaining.

It can only be done in MSFS because the physics in the default aircraft are and always will be a joke.

Guest Guest

Thought I'd back to you all on the helipcopter loop to loop 🙂

It did'nt go that well, but it made a cool spin 🙂

I was going
NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Actually, I figured the poster was your typical hyperactive 8 year old on a sugar rush. The stretched words were the clue.

Mike is right. I have never personally attempted a loop in a 172, however I witnessed a guy do it in a stock 172.
Also, what difference does it make to anyone how a person pursues a simulator. Leave the guy alone. He can fly any way he chooses. It's his game........

And those who use it for all 3 (me), but really, its fun to play around with.

The great thing about flying a sim is that you never have to pay for the ambulance ride and replacement aircraft are free.
