Default Aerobatic Training Bay Area, CA

I would like to get some upset recovery training, spin training, etc in the San Francisco area, as well as some aero training. Any recommendations?

Thanks.

I did my instrument with Marco of http://www.pardicair.com/ (he's based in PAO). I know he flies a lot of aerobatics and he's a great instructor.

I've known about Pardic Air, but haven't used them yet. A good source for a referral or possible instruction would be Jason Miller (of Finer Points fame) who teaches out of San Carlos. https://www.learnthefinerpoints.com/

Dave Watson at Livermore. He's a GREAT guy. President of the IAC chapter there and you will not find a guy who loves aerobatics more. He's got THREE acro mounts - a 290hp Pitts S2B, a Super D, and a Laser 200. PM me and I'll get you his number. Oh, he's NOT a CFI if that's what you need.

Aerodynamic Aviation at KRHV - Half their rental planes are Acrobatic planes. They have been around for years, not a place for instructors waiting to get hired by the airlines.
