Aerobatic flying is a fun and rewarding extension of your flying skills and experience. We offer Aerobatic Rating Licence courses and Aerobatic experience introduction flights. Introduction/Experience flights are also possible of the Yak-52.

After following an Aerobatic Rating Course with us you will be ready to enjoy aerobatics. You will be competent, proficient, have the requisite knowledge as well as a professional attitude. But above all you will feel safe and have confidence in your own ability to go outside of the normal flight envelope. 

It is possible to add extra items from a course other than the one being followed. We also offer coaching and mentoring for aerobatic display and/or competition flying.
