Hello! Anybody here going to the Ozark Pitts Fly-in in Alabama next weekend? Me and three mates are coming over from the UK to join in the fun and find some reasonably warm weather! http://www.curtispittsflyin.com/ Shawn Pitts S-1D G-BKVP

Hi all. i have an endorsement for the 152 and 172 - will the aerobat be as much fun as the training flight i did in the citabria? I know probably not *quite* as powerful and efficient, but will i do rolls and loops and leave passengers smiling? Im particularly interestred in aeros pilots who...

Hi, I have a quite stupied question - I am sorry... If an aerobatic program dictates a 360 degree inverted turn to the left.... will that be a left circle when viewed from the ground ie. right rudder left stick ? I tried to look it up in the "IAC Official Contest Rules" but I can't seem to find...

Hi there, Anyone knows where the three "Celstar" aerobatic gliders are located today? Any information regarding this glider type is highly appreciated. Best regrads

Dear all, I consider to buy a SZD59 for aerobatic purpose. I would like to hear opinions from people how knows the glider. How well does it perform compared to Fox and Swift? Is there figurs which are especially difficult to achive in this glider? How well does it handle in positive/negative...

Dear all, I am searchng for the unknown sequences flown at the WGAC 2007. Are they not published yet? I can't find them on the official WGAC web page. Congratulations to the winners by the way :-) Best Regards

Dear All, The world championship for glider aerobatics has started these days (16-25 August) in Austria. The official webpage (www.wgac2007.com) has been advisitising livestream transmissions of the contest flights. I have been looking on a regular basis but no flight are yet available. They have...

Dear All, I am looking for information on the TL3424 RAS acceleration logger (http://www2.tl-elektronic.com/index.php? page=lsa&p_id=7&PHPSESSID=fee5ff74bb944f141d491dcb1af990f6). As I undestand it, this logger can log speed and G-acceleration during a period of time (not just when an exceeded...

I have a Starduster SA100 with a Scotts tailwheel. The tailwheel is not tight on the springs it is loose and the wheel can be moved a few inches each direction before the springs make contact. I would think that there should be no play in the springs... my thought is that it could cause shimmy and...

In the aerobatic movie at http://www.fulldeflection.com , Svetlana Kapanina seems to hardly notice the g-forces. I guess sometimes its +9 and -4 or so, but I can only see her hair go up and down. I have watched this film many times (ahh Svetlana !).

I have lost my Job! I need to sell a picture I have of the original Skyblazers Signed by the team. My grandfather passed it on to me but, I am in need of money right now. The Twin Patillo Brothers knew my grandfather, (They give it to him). It is a pen and ink done in Fürstenfeldbruck, (In...

Need someone to settle an argument. I do not fly, so your answers need to be in laymans terms and hopefully put simply. I've occasionally watched aerobatic displays and seen a maneouver called a stall turn. Now, I more or less understand how this works, but there comes a point, just before the...

I would enjoy some feedback regarding the Lttle Toot Bi Plane from those that have one or may have flown one. also, what is a reasonable price to pay for one of these aircraft?

Van wrote an article in which he states "RV's are not well suited for because high G forces are needed to produce a brisk snap roll." When I do snap rolls in my Aerobat (perhaps that's an oxymoron) I do an accelerated stall at 75kts which is well below my Va of 105 kts so there is no possibility...
