A friend told me this morning that it is not possible to do loops in an RV8 with 2 people on board. Is this true? I will be flying with an IO 360 A1A. Myself and passenger will each weigh 210-225. Let me know what you all think.

Thanks Bud Silvers You can add up the numbers but I think you will find yourself over the gross aerobatic weight even with very light fuel. The IO 360 is heavy and two large people will send it over. Trying to remember and I am sure someone will ... aerobatic gross weight is 1550 lbs. Most RVs come in around 100 with the O-360 ... add 20 - 40 more for the IO-360. 1125 Plane 450 Passengers 1575 With no fuel !!!
