“I took aerobatic instruction to increase my abilities to react in an emergency situation in our own aircraft. I feel that I would be much less likely to panic in an emergency situation after taking the training. “
My flight instructor flew jet transports for the military in the mideast. I really learned to fly but ‘close’ was good enough.
I flew with our club. instructor, an ex-Navy fighter pilot. I learned what ‘precise’ meant when flying!
Half the guys who live on our field are ex-military. We have a bunch of beautiful old war birds here. Our next door neighbor is ex-military and has an N3N, the Navy equivalent of a Stearman. Three doors down beautiful Amelia who is an airline pilot and still lives with her two airline pilot parents has a beautiful T-6 Harvard.
Thanks for posting the video... It shows the exact sequence of what can happen when you fly outside the flight envelope. It looks like pilot error.
