what other basic or advance aerobatic moves possible with a TRAINER??
It really depends upon, (a) whether the trainer has a flat bottom (Aquila) or semi-flat (Clark Y) aerofoil, or a semi or fully symmetrical one, and (b) the amount of excess thrust available (ie: a function of engine power & prop fitted).
For a typical high wing trainer with a semi-symmetrical aerofoil such as a TWM Sky Raider Mach I, all the primary manoeuvres, including spins, can be performed reasonably well with even a modest powerplant. eg: 40LA. Of course, due to the span (65"), roll rate is relatively subdued so snaps aren;t spectacular and there's not much oomph for verticals, and the airframe must be flown through vertical manoeuvres with appreciation of energy management. With a more powerful engine in that airframe such as an LA46 or better, typical Sportsman pattern combos such as top hats, stall turns with ΒΌ rolls etc can start being performed with increasing ease in the vertical. Usually not as clean or as graceful as a purpose designed pattern ship even in the .46 class, but the manoeuvres can be performed so as to be completely identifiable regardless.
