Fortunately, those sort of G-Forces don't result in me emptying my stomach over the instrument panel in my Sim Cessna 150 Aerobat.
In real life, I'm sure I would suffer a heart attack!
....(I don't even like Fair-Ground Rides)...
....but normal (sensible!) flights in the Clubs Cessna 150/152's are OK!... :)....!

Awesome flight, something I really want to experience as well! The double hammerhead was very cool.
My specs... A hard drive, motherboard, graphics card, some memory, a keyboard, mouse, and monitor - in other words, nothing special.

That's an awesome flight. I did the same thing here in Dallas. I didn't lose my stomach in flight, but I did just a little bit after we landed and we were taxiing. I did edit my flight video before I posted it on youtube  ;D

2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
