I did not realize the Libelle could be looped?

It spins nicely too, though you have to be fairly brutal to get it to
depart[1]. Mine is easily the most spin-resistant single-seater I've
flown.

[1] Pulling the nose up 30 degrees and crossing rudder and ailerons as it
stalls generally does the trick. Recovery is normal, though the small
control deflections mean it takes 1/2 a turn to recover rather than the
1/4 turn you expect from a Pegase or Discus 1.
