Wow, never saw that before! Doesn't that overstress that type of
airframe??

That is impressive! Wonder if the Thunderbirds are watching. =)

As long as the pilot keeps positive g on the airframe as he goes
through the barrel roll, the airframe doesn't really notice... e.g.
the Boeing Dash-80 over Lake Washington in 1954.

That, and I understand the C-27J is one tough li'l bugger...
