I'm a CFI teaching my kids how to fly. As they get more advanced certificates, they've been asking for some spin, upset recovery and basic aerobatics training. I am glad to oblige, as I've been doing these things on my own for many years. Unfortunately I don't have a single written reference from which to instruct. Spins and basic aerobatics deserve solid ground training and an organized approach to flight training--definitely not the "hey watch this" approach.
Does anyone have links to, or copies of training materials and syllabi that I could use?
I've tried Googling the topic, but the only things I find are upset recovery training materials that are geared toward commercial carriers. And some of you may ask why I don't just send the kids to an aerobatic school. Answer: where's the fun in that?
A future benefit here is that after I get this training dialed in, I might offer it to other VAF members. We could fly it in my Extra 330 for pay, or in my RV-7 for lunch, since I can't charge for training in an experimental.
