I've started training for my AOPA Basic Aerobatics Rating with High-G Advanced Flight Training based at Blackpool Airport. This is my first lesson in the Bulldog and it was absolutely amazing!

Reminds me a little of my initial aerobatic instruction. Although, where I learnt., you weren’t allowed to even contemplate aerobatic exercise under 4000. Als, my first lesson was a very exacting initiation into Aeroflot rolls - my instructor was very exacting. On this. Then there was spin recovery - finally loops & barrel ro;d, stalled turns and all the more exiting stuff. Following which, came sequencer, - nominated by the instructor. I t was during one of thes, when I forgot to attach the Velcro hold on my headphone, when he gave me a bollocking, , followed by an unexpected ‘you’ve just had angling failure’ when I was approaching the aerodrome.

That was awesome. I can only afford to fly in flight simulation but learned loads there. Do you use the rudder much in the other maneuvers , obviously its used in the stall turn .

Excellent flying! Did you find Aeros to be fatiguing the first few times?? I know I do. Speaking of fatigue, do you recall the fatigue index value of that bulldog? And how many airframe hours? It seems to be in really nice shape!

High G’s to me is when I wore my g suit in the F-4 and F-16. Be careful and don’t black out. Civilian pilots usually learn the hard way.

Absolutely brilliant! This reminds me of the passenger flight I had in a Slingsby Firefly T67 M260 two seat trainer which can be seen on my KZfaq channel along with the other aerobatic flights that I have done this year. I've done aerobatics in a 1943 de Havilland Tiger Moth DH82A and I did the 'Utter Nutter' challenge in an Extra 300L. I also did an aerobatic wing walk with loops and stall turns while stood on the top wing of a 1944 Boeing Stearman! All were fantastic fun and I would love to do more especially the wing walks and the Extra 300L rides!

it's to stop sweat getting on the controls and potentially your hands slipping mainly but also for fire safety.
