Considering there is not a loop manuver on the charts the stall is the closest thing to it. A plane is stalled at the top of a loop but does pick up speed at the bottom. Again a manuver to allow a plane that is being tailed to switch possition with his opponent.
Personally I always considered that the loops were the 29S2 and 27S2.
The 29's and 27's are really Immelmann turns( the aircraft reverses directiion ). In a loop the aircraft maintains the same direction.
Pretty sure the aircraft of WWI were not of the looping variety, which is why there are no loop maneuvers. The stalls are abruptly slowing down - either by cutting the engine, raising the flaps, or both - to the point where the wind passing over the wings no longer provides sufficient lift for the aircraft. |
