So this is my first post. Hi to all! Im a private pilot out of Lantana, Fl. I work at the FBO on the airport and I am trying to get into ATC. I know I know. But anyways Ive always wanted to go for an aerobatic ride and I finally got my chance a few months ago with this woman who keeps her Extra 200 in our hanger when she comes down here for the winter. She flys it down all the way from Maine. Shes a bad ass and the nicest person.
Was a tight fit!
Yes tight.
Yes She was the pilot!!
We did rolls, loops, hammerheads. It was awesome. She let me take control and it was amazing how sensitive the controls were. I would touch the stick to the right and we would in a 90 degree bank. After a few minutes i got the hang of it and I could keep altitude in high bank turns and rolls. Pulled some nice G's at the bottom of the loop. Almost 5 she said! It was a great experience and I really would like to get more involved in aerobatics. Now I just need $300,000 for an extra 300 and im ready to go. Yea right! That's serious stuff with serious power! Id be happy with an Aerobatic 152.
