The Aircraft
The American Champion Super Decathlon is the ideal aircraft for tailwheel and advanced flight training. With its gentle stall and spin characteristics, it provides a safe and predictable platform for tailwheel spinning, and upset recovery training. And when it comes to aerobatics, the Super Decathlon truly shines — its strong airframe and inverted fuel and oil systems allow pilots to explore a full range of maneuvers with confidence.
Your Instructor
Gregory Gerhardt is an Aerobatics Pilot and Flight Instructor who exclusively specialises in tailwheel endorsements, spin recovery and aerobatics training. After two entrepreneurial decades across the globe, Greg decided to swap spreadsheets for airspeed, dedicating himself to his true passion: Flight. When he’s not coaching talented pilots like yourself, you can find him out with his mob, chasing lift through paragliding, skydiving, kiteboarding or wing foiling.
