I am looking for a basic aerobatic instruction book. Can anyone recommend a title. I am more interested in a basic "how to" and instructional book vs. a how to be a competitor book.
Any of Duane Cole?s books are good, but you still need to get at least a couple of lessons from a good aerobatic instructor. Reading the book isn?t as good as someone actually demonstrating how to do a perfectly symmetrical loop, otherwise you may end up practicing errors over and over again. Been there?done that with Duane Cole back in ?68.!
I second the book by Szurovy and Goulian. I REALLY like the way they outline what can go wrong in a maneuver and what to do about it. I think it goes a long way toward understanding what you're trying not to do and gives the fix should you botch it.
They break everything down nicely. At least I think I get it!

I learned how to water ski by reading a book. Not great but I impressed the people that took me along on thier trip. I agree not as good as pro lessons but it was a lot of fun.
