Aerobatics is often classified as stunt flying which it is not. During every sequence design, whether it’s a flight in the box, an airshow or an airrace, safety is paramount. No pilot will be allowed to fly at a level which he’s not ready for. During the flying there’s many challenges for the pilots. It’s all about precision, accuracy, energy management and situational awareness. Even the smallest lapse in concentration might result in a bad manoeuvre and therefore zero points from the judges. So, we refer to aerobatics as “the art of flying”
Aerobatic contests are organized all over the world, with National Championships, European Championships and a World Championship. Apart from this, aerobatics are never missing on airshows and attract many spectators. More information about Frank and his aircraft can be found on his website
