	Introduction to Aerobatics
		Aerobatic pilots must stay in reasonably good physical condition and gradually develop (and then fly regularly to maintain) G tolerance.
		Aerobatic competitors and airshow pilots choreograph their flights with the Aresti System, named after Don Jose Luis Aresti Aguirre, the Spanish pilot who invented the "Aresti Aerocriptographic System." The beginning of each maneuver is designated by the fl circle.
		For the purposes of this section, aerobatic flight means an intentional maneuver involving an abrupt change in an aircraft's attitude, an abnormal attitude, or abnormal acceleration, not necessary for normal flight.

	Aerobatics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Aerobatic maneuvers flown in a jet powered aircraft are limited in scope as they cannot take advantage of the gyroscopic forces that a propeller driven aircraft can exploit.
		Aerobatics are taught to military fighter pilots as a means of developing precise flying skills and for tactical use in combat.
		Aerobatics and formation flying is not limited solely to fixed wing aircraft, helicopters are also used - the British Army, Royal Navy and the Indian Air Force have helicopter display team.

	AEROBATICS (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Aerobatics is the art of precision flying where pre-set patterns are drawn in the sky by the aeroplane.
		Also people often interchange aerobatics and pattern when talking about aerobatics as aerobatics is about flying patterns in the sky.
		Standard is the entry level to aerobatics and aims to help develop the main elements that most manoeuvres contain such as loops, rolls, vertical flight, level flight and inverted flight.

	Hummingbird and the Psychology of Aerobatics
		Aerobatics today has its roots in the powerful symbol of the military dogfight.”; The aerobatic biplanes are configured identically to WW1 fighters; a Pitts is nothing more than a compact, slightly modernized Sopwith Camel, Fokker D7, or Spad.
		Aerobatics is free and precise maneuvering on three axes, in three dimensions in space, relying upon classical physics and interaction with the atmosphere.
		Hummingbird is the first of a new breed of specialized aerobatic aircraft, divorced of military connections, built solely and simply to maneuver freely and precisely in the sky.

	Why Fly Aerobatics
		One essential to all who fly aerobatics is love of cutting through the air in way that most never experience, seeking a freedom in release, in motion for its own sake.
		They are also possessed of some of the attributes we label high performance, which means they roll fast and may have quick, sometimes unannounced, stall characteristics.That being the case, sport pilots are depending on the inherent stability of their airplane and their own luck to avoid bad situations.
		The second category where aerobatic skills fit and where they are necessary is in preventing dangerous situations from developing, chief among them being stall spin accidents and attitude upsets (the infamous airliner vortex scenario).

		Basic Aerobatics are the building blocks onto other advanced maneuvers and 3-d flying.
		Almost all aerobatics are based on one or more of three elements: loop, roll, and stall.
		The best way to begin aerobatic flying in RC is to have a qualified instructor demonstrate each maneuver for you and monitor your attempts to perform the maneuvers until you have demonstrated good control during this type of maneuver.
