Ok so what caused him to no pull out of the loop? Started too low? Engine or control problems? Would be nice to see the full version of what caused it rather than the rest of what amounts to retelling it over and over other than we are going to do him in.

He started the loop too low and too slow, and the engine never went to full power.
