Does anyone know if it is safe, assuming you are properly trained in aerobatics,

Glider is rated at +5.3 -3.3 Gs


I have seen people perform loops in them and it is legally a fully aerobatic glider but the service bulleton says that you cannot but I do believe that that was due to people not being trained for how fast the glider accelerates so they would go past Vne and rip a wing off.
