The Breitling Wingwalkers
After the war the interest for this art, was lost. But those barnstorming days of the ’20s and 30s and the characters who manned the flying circuses hadn’t been forgotten by those with a deep love of flying and a passion for its history. A few wing walking teams operated in America in the 1970s but it wasn’t until frustrated barnstormer Vic Norman founded his famous Aerosuperbatics wing walking team in the early 1980s that the sight of dare devils handstanding and flying upside down on the wing was seen in Europe.

Sukhoi SU-26 MX - PH SMX Teuge Wings, Wheels and Goggles 2013
Frank "Woody" van Houten
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

Extra 330SC - G-IIHI Mark Jefferies Air Displays
Mark Jefferies performing at Oostwold Airshow 2013
Words cant describe the abilities and spectacle of Mark Jefferies flying, other display pilots stand asking themselves how on earth was that flown, what’s happening aerodynamically. Mark has been part of medal winning teams on several occasions not only for individual flights but that of large formations flying in the Aerostars team. Mark Jefferies is one of the top pilots in the world. His free-style solo display in his Extra 330SC is second to none. With his own unique flying skills and the extreme capabilities of his aircraft, Mark performs manoeuvres in this aircraft that just should not be possible and he never fails to impress the crowds.
