Well, not with that attitude, they aren't. But I've been on some charters where I'm pretty sure that they were, in fact, larping Chuck Yeager. I've seen a solid 2.5-2.8G turns in a 737, as well as some cornea-peeling rotations to max climb. It's kinda funny how things sometimes change when the plane isn't full of paying passengers.
I mean, those are pretty standard maneuvers, up to 4gs or so, in small aircraft, and I used to fly aerobatic frequently... but it just hits different somehow on an aircraft that weighs 70 tons and flexes visibly.
