  Cessna 172. I don't really like that plane.
  
  prefer the 152s. 2 seater.
  
  boy .... you can really put shit loads of Gs with that.
  
  Back than in australia while i was a trainee we had this "Uncontrolled Recovery" excerise. the instructor put the plane into whatever stunts you can think of and lets go in the middle and tell you to recovery with minimum altitude lost.
  
  its during the pulling and climb out stage where you experience around 3 Gs. not alot though but for first timers its a big blow. 3Gs is enough to screw up the Gyro gauge for the Attitude indicator
  
  we also did Spiral dives ... incipient spins... steep turns... hammerheads. almost vomitted that day.

  firstly turbo prop's engines are extremely sensitive to temperature differences. if say you are at 95% thrust and you reduce to 23% idle right away in 1 sec, the engine will stall. vice versa and the engine will explode.
  
  so for aerobatic planes its mainly just piston.
