Welcome to my talk page!

'Aerobatics is the demonstration of flying maneuvers for training, recreation or entertainment. Aerobatic flying requires a higher set of piloting skills than for normal flight, exposes the aircraft to greater structural stress and carries a risk for the pilot who must combat disorientation and g forces. Many pilots fly aerobatics solely for recreation, but world-wide, several hundred pilots choose to fly in aerobatic competitions. To fly aerobatics legally, a pilot must pass an aerobatic flight test which includes knowledge of the restrictions for aerobatics in terms of altitude, built up areas and airspace as well as practical demonstration of skill. On passing the test, the pilot receives an endorsement on their license (or certificate) to fly.
