Written by William K. Kershner — who started his solo aerobatic career in a Stearman N2S at age 17 and went on to operate an aerobatic school in Sewanee, Tennessee flying a Cessna 152 Aerobat — this manual emphasizes techniques for the Cessna Aerobat models, though the maneuvers described easily translate to any aerobatics-certified airplane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eStarting with stalls, chandelles, and lazy eights, the student is guided through spins and the Three Fundamentals of basic aerobatics: the aileron roll, loop, and snap roll. Once these fundamentals are learned, the book moves into combination maneuvers — the cloverleaf, for example — covered in depth. The chapter on spins and spin recovery draws on knowledge gained from over 7,000 spins, each having 3 to 25 turns, flown in the Cessna Aerobat, and returning to controlled flight solely by reference to instruments is also examined closely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis third edition, updated by William C. Kershner, adds an important new chapter on Loss of Control In-Flight (LOC-I) — the leading cause of fatal general aviation accidents — to complement the existing chapter on unusual attitude (upset) recovery, making this an essential safety resource for any pilot focused on flight safety, not just aspiring aerobatic pilots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine ASA\/Kershner Flight Manuals textbook, Third Edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten by William K.
