Basic Aerobatics by Geza Szurovy, Mike Goulian
Aerobatic Champion Mike Goulian and award-winning aviation writer Geza Szurovy explain everything the prospective acrobatic pilot needs to know about aerobatics. A variety of maneuvers-loops, slow rolls, Cuban eights, inverted flight, and many more-are discussed and illustrated with diagrams and in-flight photos. And, the theory and practice of aerobatics are explained. Not only does the aerobatic student learn how to conduct the maneuver, but learns also what is happening to the airplane and why it is happening.
