Welcome to the website of the British Aerobatic Association.
We are the sport flying Association responsible in the UK for scheduling and
running aerobatic competitions for powered aircraft and gliders to
internationally approved rules.
We run over twenty events each year throughout the UK and Eire. The majority
of these cater for all levels of aerobatic contest flying, and national
champions are declared in four power and glider classes. We also send teams
to the three major annual international aerobatic World or European
championships.
We also run a series of extremely popular one-day Loop Beginners
introductory format events designed expressly as a first step for pilots to
experience sequence flying. Use the links on the left here to read the
Briefing Paper about the 2012 events.
Pilots, family and all aviation enthusiasts are warmly encouraged to meet us
at a contest, particularly to assist on the judging line - just ask for the
Chief Judge or the Contest Director. If you're a pilot, flying in an
aerobatic contest is the most exhilarating fun you can have .... and much
easier to achieve than you might imagine.
Come along and find out more
about flying, judging, assisting or just enjoying the atmosphere at a BAeA
aerobatic competition in 2012!
