The date has been set for the Area Aerobatics competition !!!!!
The 25th of April 2010 will again see pilots from North and South of Ireland visit Ballymoney Club for the first of a 2 leg NI aerobatic competition.
Matthew Poots and his team from Banbridge MFC will again be the event organizers.
Matt has this year given us a real target to improve our flying skills. As Matt rightly stated, if we learn to fly the schedules then our general flying skills will improve. On this point he would encourage all types of planes to fly in the basic schedule. The key is to improve ! we all have a suitable plane !!! let it be a basic aerobatic plane like a WOT 4 or a Panic.
I would love to see more of our Club pilots take up the challenge of learning to fly a schedule and with Matthews guidance then this will be achievable to us.
Schedules can be found here
Basic (2010)
