Customer Reviews

Good stuff
As a former university air squadron pilot, where aerobatics are done routinely on every sortie, I can say this book is excellent. The advice and information is well set out and has more information than I ever learnt in my trusty Bulldog. It has made me want to get back on to the G-force roller-coaster again! It may look a tiny bit old it terms of type face but the information is current and very well written.

A useful primer for beginners
This textbook is primarily written for those who wish to make a start in the sport of aerobatcs using the Cessna 150/152 Aerobat. This type is probably the most easily available for hire in the UK at flight schools.
As one of the authors I do hope you find it useful in making your first steps in a fascinating aviation sport.
