In the UK we run one of the busiest and most respected contest calendars in world aerobatics. This gives both the newest rated pilot and the seasoned competitor the very best chance to pit themselves against their peers and show their skills. With time this often leads to a desire to see how good you really are against the best of the best.

We have established a programme of coaching and training camps to encourage and assist pilots in preparing for their attendance at World and European championships. There is no greater challenge in the sport. The physical, mental and technical preparation needs to be second to none for a pilot to be competitive.

Our fund-raising programme is designed to help with this, by generating funds to buy the extra coaching and support for teams which individuals cannot access. The programme of prize draws for flights in iconic aircraft such as the Spitfire or a L-39 jet fighter help us engage the very best trainers and spend more time learning the skills which are needed to make the difference.
