Take at least an hour of aerobatics dual sometime in an approved airplane... lots of fun, and it's a good confidence-builder, as well as being educational.

I did the aircombat USA thing a while ago, more than an hour of dual aerobatics logged. I should do it again though. I believe there's a guy with a Pitts out of Wings, I'll have to check.

Whoops- yes, I think you told us about that. A Pitts sounds like fun... i think for my next aerobatic flight I want to try an Aerobat. something about getting upside-down in a 152 really appeals to me... Grin

There is an old brown Aerobat at the airport I fly out of, and I've got a friend who took a few of his PPL lessons in it, but he said it was an awful piece of junk, so hopefully you find a good one. Grin

You haven't really flown until you've been upside down in a 172 while your instructor is trying to put it into a spin. Grin

Oops, did I just say that, don't tell the FAA.... Lips Sealed
