What the Introduction to Aerobatics flight includes

  • Ground briefing: the aircraft, the 5-point harness, the order of the manoeuvres and the signals you agree with the pilot.
  • Take-off from Costinești Airfield and climb to working altitude.
  • 30 minutes of flight, with loops, rolls and steep banked turns. Total experience 40 minutes.
  • 3-4G felt during the figures.
  • Landing and debrief.
  • A personalised gift card, if the flight is a present for someone else.

The manoeuvres, in brief

Loop

The aircraft climbs vertically, goes over the top nose-up and comes back down, closing a full circle in the vertical plane. This is where you feel positive G most clearly.

Roll

The aircraft rotates 360 degrees around its longitudinal axis. The horizon turns over and comes back, while the flight path stays the same.

Steep banked turns

Tight turns at a steep bank angle, where you start to feel your own body weight multiplied several times over.

What 3-4G feels like

Three to four times your body weight

At 4G, a 70 kg body presses into the seat as if it weighed 280 kg. Your arms become hard to lift and your breathing changes for a few seconds.

Manoeuvres at your pace

The pilot talks to you between figures and adjusts the intensity to how you are feeling. The pace is not fixed.

No sustained inverted flight

The introductory package does not include spins or sustained inverted flight — those are part of Full Aerobatic.
