This Question was appeared in my exam.
HERE IS THE ANSWER
Centripetal Acceleration, a = v^2/r = 1000*1000/250 = 4000 m/s^2

Radius of the loop, r = 1 km = 1000 m
Speed of the aircraft,
v = 900 km/h= 900× 5/18 = 260m/s
Centripetal acceleration,
a(c) = v^2/ r
= (250)^2/1000
= 62.5 m/s^2
Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s2
a(c)/ g
=62.5/9.8
= 6.38
=> a(c)= 9.38 g
I hope, this will help you
