Aerobatics Bulldog

As technology improves, the trend is to focus on learning systems, procedures, and master sophisticated cockpit automation, sometimes just through simulation and theory. All those points are important, cost-effective, and will help us during the learning process, but as long as we are still required to perform manually reacting in a timely and precise manner, we should never bury basic skills, real flying, and heuristics.
Only in actual aircraft a #pilot can encounter proper stall and spin characteristics. Professional feedback through supervised deliberate practice is crucial for establishing positive startle and life-saving muscle memory actions. When it comes to low-level, low speed, close to the stall, MTOW, manual flying, as it happens while #Aerialfirefighting with our amphibious scoopers or SEAT's, there is very little time to react. Therefore, not just #UPRT training is important, but ideally, we should have a solid understanding of aerobatic maneuvers, to avoid LOC-I events of catastrophic consequences.
Remember! "For an #aerobatic pilot, there are no unusual attitudes"
