TAILWHEEL / UPRT SCHOOLS
When it comes to getting started in Aerobatics, the simple answer is - there's no simple answer! The journey for each pilot varies but there are some basic commonalities. Almost all aerobatic aircraft are tailwheel so before you get upside down - you'll need to have a tailwheel endorsement. The next common step is a Upset Recovery Training (UPRT). This will introduce you to unusual attitudes, aerobatics and how to get yourself out of those situations. Once a pilot is proficient in safely operating the aircraft in these attitudes, it allows opportunities to explore aerobatics knowing you can safely recover to level flight.
HERE IS A LIST OF SCHOOLS IN THE REGION THAT CAN HELP YOU EXPLORE YOUR INNER UPSIDE DOWN!
