Precision Aerobatics

Precision Aerobatics is an invaluable reference for those seeking to quickly advance their flying skills and serves as an excellent guide for instructor-coaches. This book helps sport pilots build into their flights the natural progression of refinements required to take flying to a whole new level of quality and satisfaction. With nearly half its content addressing the proper uses of Rudder to prevail over Wind and engine torque, this manual will provide an immediate and significant boost for flyers of all skill levels. Rather than another rehash of the maneuvers, Precision Aerobatics serves as a flight training system. Hundreds of detailed illustrations with matching control stick positions guide advancing flyers step by step through each phase of learning to fly better maneuvers, while special features help pilots bypass common mistakes and enhance practice effectiveness by focusing the pilot's attention on controlling what the airplane does instead of reacting to it. Maneuvers taught include: Horizontal rolls - consecutive rolls - 4-point hesitation rolls - round loops - Immelmanns - split S - Cuban 8 - reverse Cuban 8 - All with appropriate rudder and throttle adjustments.
