We show a simple geometric procedure for an extension of a loop realized as the image $\Sigma ^{ \ast}$ of a sharply transitive section in a subgroup $G^{ \ast}$ of the projective linear group $PGL(n-1, \mathbb K)$ to a loop realized as the image of a sharply transitive section in a group $\Delta =T' \rtimes C$ of affinities of the $n$-dimensional space ${ \cal A}_n=\mathbb K^n$ over a commutative field $\mathbb K$. We desire that $T'$ is a large subgroup of affine translations and that $\alpha (C)=G^{ \ast}$ holds for the canonical homomorphism $\alpha :GL(n,\mathbb K) \to PGL(n, \mathbb K)$. We demonstrate that our construction successfully can be applied to sharply transitive sections in unitary and orthogonal groups $SU_{ p_2}(n,F)$ of positive index $p_2$ over ordered pythagorean $n$-real fields $F$.
