Inspired by the fantastic achievements of Laura Russell last weekend our Product of the Week this week is Basic Aerobatics by Campbell and Tempest. Laura secured 2nd place at Advanced Level at a British National Aerobatics Competition in Fenland in only her first appearance at advanced level and she is the first Irish female to compete at this level! Huge congratulations to Laura!
The next stop for Laura is the World Advanced Aerobatics Championships in Las Vegas in October. You can support Laura’s fundraising efforts here.
Basic Aerobatics guides those interested in aerobatics but with little previous knowledge or experience, into this fascinating and demanding discipline. In clear, simple language highlighted with several tables and diagrams, it covers display aerobatics and an introduction to competition aerobatics. The technical subjects include ground training, legislation, airframe, engine and physical limitations. Long briefing and air exercises including in-flight training, advanced turning, slow flight, stalling, spinning etc., precede a comprehensive coverage of the basic aerobatics manoeuvres. There is 20% off this week on Pilot.ie
