Bellanca Aerobatics Guide

Thanks to Bo Gilham for sharing this with us.

Please, if you haven't done aerobatics before, please get instruction before trying these maneuvers on your own. Use a parachute, comply with the regulations regarding equipment and airspace, and do a thorough aerobatics-grade preflight on your airplane before flying. Thanks!

Thank you so much for sharing this!

I think there's an error in the "Slow Roll" diagram. It shows right rudder by position five when the written description shows it more like late in position three as you're transitioning into position 4.

What says the jury?

What you need instruction here I thought the day you pick up the plane all skill would arrive, and I’d be a pro

On the serious side it’s been almost 15 years since being upside down and I planed on some instruction before any maneuvers. Thanks for the instruction book.

This is a very good reference. Very good explanation of the physics and aerodynamics of each maneuver. 30 bucks on Amazon.

Unsure if it would be of any use to anyone but I went ahead and downloaded all the individual photos and combined them into a PDF so it is more of an e-book like format. File should be attached to this post let me know if it does not work.

Not sure how many are left so maybe send an email first before sending payment

The new TC holder for the Bellanca Cruisemaster and Viking found a box of these aerobatic guides NOS and has them for sale. $30 paypal to Mike Redpath at [email protected], includes shipping. He has maybe 50 to 60 of them so when they're gone, they're gone.

Can anyone help me understand the process of ordering a book successfully? I've sent 3 emails over the last 3 months to Mike. No response.

I'm curious, for the 7KCAB, I haven't seen anything that say if the fuel pump should be turned on or off. Something tells me it should be turned on but I have no evidence that says one way or the other.

I use my pump for starting only. If the engine ever quits, I plan to turn it on. Overhauls are expensive.
