Aerobatics books

Basic Aerobatics

by: Geza Szurovy
Good textbook-style intro to aerobatic flight. It's a little light on the physics involved, but gives thorough step-by-step descriptions (and matching pictures) for each maneuver. Great for aspiring aerobats, RC flyers, or pilots interested in unusual attitude recovery techniques. I will be buying the advanced aerobatics text by the same authors.

Better Aerobatics

by: Alan Charles Cassidy
very well written---not directed to any one interest group. Great book for advanced competitive pilot as well as beginner aerobatic student. Also more maneuvers that any other book I have seen.

Advanced Aerobatics

by: Geza Szurovy
In line with the excellent quality that this entire series of books always maintains this is a very good, very informative, easy to understand text. It covers a whole range of subjects from describing the maneouvres to evaluation of different aircraft and a wealth of information on competition flying. I would recommend this book to all flyers, aerobatic or not.

The Basic Aerobatic Manual (The Flight Manuals Series)

by: William K. Kershner
Based on my 3000 hours instructing aerobatics in a Cessna Aerobat. The book was written as a project with Cessna Aircraft in 1969 and updated with each printing. I'm the chief (and only) instructor of the world's smallest aerobatic school--one airplane/one instructor/one comfort bag
