There is absolutely no doubt about it, this is going to be the most fun you can have in aviation! But make no mistake, it is also going to be the most challenging thing you have done as a pilot.

So are you up for this? Are you ready to find out what your personal limits are and in the process discover what it actually takes to go beyond them safely? This is hands and feet flying at its absolute best and you are going to love this journey of self discovery!

As part of your training you are going to build a confidence level like you have never experienced as the pilot in command of a plane. Learning to recognise and manage unusual attitudes is just the beginning.

Surprisingly, aerobatics are relatively simple and any pilot is capable of doing them however to fly them safely and to a high standard you need quality training. Our quality and standard of training is simply the best. We are the market leaders and set the bar for the very best aerobatic training available today. We can take you right from the very beginning through to competition level, all at your own pace.

This course is comprised of nine lessons and conducted in the Alpha 160A. The BAC incorporates all elements of our Upset Recovery Course. At the completion of this course you will attain CASR Part 61 Aerobatic and Spin Flight Activity Endorsements.

You will be able to perform your newly acquired aerobatic manoeuvres and fully developed spins with passengers on board above 3000ft. In addition to these manoeuvres you will also learn advanced aircraft control techniques, emergency manoeuvre training, recognition of and escape from mishandled manoeuvres and dynamic stalls and spins in any attitude or situation.These skills are an essential part of aerobatic flying which also improve your general flying ability and confidence.

Since our aim is to produce a confident and competent pilot we train to a standard, not a set price, so the final figure may vary for each student. Any remedial training will be charged at the standard rates. No up front payment or deposit is required.

Now that you understand the basics it’s time to put it altogether into a meaningful sequence. The IAC is conducted in the Alpha 160A and provides the foundation for aerobatic competition sequence flying. The Basic Aerobatics Course (BAC) is a prerequisite for pilots wishing to do the IAC.

As each manoeuvre is approved individually and additional practice may be required prior to the standard competencies being reached. Because competency levels are based upon an individuals skill there is no set course cost. Each manoeuvre requires a longer than usual pre-flight brief and each lesson is charged at our standard rates. How much or how little the course costs depends upon your skill level and your ability to master the competencies.

It’s time to level up with the the AAC. This course builds on the IAC and focuses on more advanced competition aerobatic manoeuvres, energy management, geographic positioning and orientation. At the conclusion of this course pilots will be recommended for a CASR Part 61 1500ft Aerobatic Flight Activity endorsement.

As each manoeuvre is approved individually and additional practice may be required prior to the standard competencies reached there is no set course cost. Each manoeuvre requires an extend pre-flight brief and each lesson is charged at our standard rates. The AAC is conducted using the Alpha 160A and an upgrade to the Pitts Special or Extra 200 is available following this course. Advanced Aerobatics Course manoeuvres include:

These endorsements enable a pilot to fly an aerobatic sequence at altitudes below 1500 feet. Tuition further concentrates on more advanced and dynamic competition manoeuvres, energy management, geographic positioning and orientation. At the conclusion of this training pilots may be recommended for a CASR Part 61 1000ft or 500ft Aerobatic Flight Activity endorsement.

Competition Aerobatics
Once you have your endorsements The Aerobatic School encourages students to compete in both our in-house competitions and those conducted at the regional, state and national level by the Australian Aerobatic Club. Information, support and guidance are provided to all students looking to compete in these competitions.

Competitions are scheduled throughout the year. These comps are great for pilots who are new to the aeros scene as they are low pressure and a lot of fun. We have competitors from all levels so don’t be shy… you might surprise yourself. Our in-house comps are also great practice for those seasoned aerobatics competitors.

Whether you have been flying for years of you have just achieved your unrestricted license you’re going to learn something from your aerobatics rating and if you’re up for some more advanced training then we have the pilots, planes and skills to accommodate your every need. If you have any questions at all make sure you reach out and send us an email or if you’d prefer to speak with one of our instructors then give us a call on: 02 9791 0643. We look forward to flying with you…
