8:30-9:45am           Picking the Best Acro Bird for You - Budd Davisson

Budd has over 43 years and more than 5,500 hours of dual-given just in the pattern teaching people to master the Pitts on the ground and in the air. Others specialize in akro, which he does as well, but Budd prefers to concentrate on overcoming the mystique of the Pitts and similar airplanes on the ground.

This forum covers a wide variety of variables in making a decision about which acrobatically capable aircraft is best for you.

Everyone associates the IAC with competitive aerobatics, but what about those who just seek an all attitude exposure. Have you built an experimental aircraft that is more than capable of aerobatics and have been thinking of expanding your flying envelope? How can you approach this safely and with confidence? Learn how the IAC category system and figure criteria can help organize your journey.
