They also have an ambassadorial role, promoting an air force and country overseas. Many covered in this supplement display overseas each year and, in some cases, frequently undertake international tours. Teams are also used to promote a country’s aerospace industry, playing informal roles in sales campaigns. As financial constraints continue to affect air force budgets globally, it will be interesting to see if aerobatic teams can maintain their military, political and industrial value.

  • Airshows in California
    Airshows In California If you like to watch cool airplanes fly around, there is hardly a better state to live in than beautiful California. The great weather has made our state home to many air bases and to many passionate private owners of interesting aircraft. All the crop-dusting that goes on in the Central Valley produces many a fine aerobat. Nasa's Ames Research Center, right in Silicon Valley, has been at the leading edge of fluid dynamics studies for a while (they have the largest wind tunnel in the world). Also, much of the USAF's recon units are not too far from there, in the Sacramento area. Heading south, Lemoore is one of the US Navy's biggest fighter-jet bases. Further south; the LA area headquarters Northrop Grumman and AeronVironment and is home to some Boeing and Lockheed facilities, not to mention Vandenberg's rocket launchpads. And finally, the importance of Southern California's Antelope Valley to the development and testing of modern aviation technologies cannot be overstated, from Edwards Air Force Base and the Nasa Dryden Flight Research Center (where the sound barrier was first broken and where proof-of-concept X-planes still fly) to all the prototyping/testing facilities at Palmdale and the home of Scaled Composites in Mojave. So if you like aviation, there are few places you'd rather be at than California. And where there are a lot of people making aviation happen... there are airshows. If you live in California and think you might enjoy going to an airshow, here are some you can pick from.

  • Circular Administration
    Advisory US.Depanment 01 Tronsporlolion Federal Aviation Circular Administration Subject: A HAZARD IN AEROBATICS: Date: 2/28/84 At No: 91-61 EFFECTS OF G-FORCES ON PILOTS Initiated by: AFO- 800 ; Change: AAM-500; AAC-100 1. PURPOSE. Because aerobatic flying subjects pilots to gravitational effects (G's) that can impair their ability to safely operate the aircraft, pilots who engage in aerobatics, or those who would take up such activity, should understand G's and some of their physiological effects. This circular provides background information on G's, their effect on the human body, and their role in safe flying. Suggestions are offered for avoiding problems caused by accelerations encountered in aerobatic maneuvers. 2. BACKGROUND. Aerobatic flying demands the best of both aircraft and pilot. The aircraft must be highly maneuverable, yet tolerant of G-loads. The pilot must possess skill and physiological stamina. He or she must be daring, yet mindful of the aircraft's limitations as well as his or her own. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Advisory Circular No. 91-48, "Acrobatics-Precision Flying with a Purpose," dated June 29, 1977, discusses some of the airworthiness and operational aspects of aerobatics, but does not consider biomedical factors. The most important of these biomedical factors is the pilot's response to accelerations (or G-loading). The major physiological effects of G-loaaing vary from reduced vision to loss of consciousness. The pilot who understands these effects will be better able to cope with them so that he or she can continue the sport of aerobatic flying. J.

  • Aerobatics Analysis
    Aerobatic Capabilities of “Marginally Aerobatic” Airplanes ‐ Bernardo Malfitano, Boeing Commercial Airplanes Aerobatic Capabilities of “Marginally Aerobatic” Airplanes Bernardo Malfitano Aerobatic pilot, Boeing structural fatigue and damage tolerance engineer/researcher/instructor, airplane design instructor Note 1: This is an informal paper that I wrote in my spare time for fun. It does not represent the views of my employer, my flight instructors, the FAA, or anyone else. It has not been reviewed by peers or experts. There may quite possibly be errors in my math, bugs in my code, and/or poor assumptions in my physics. If you would like to provide any feedback, please do feel free to email me. Note 2: Do not disobey the limitations set by the manufacturer of any aircraft! Respect the POH and the placards on the panel, including the ones that prohibit aerobatic flight on most airplanes. Open up any book on airplane performance, and various equations are derived which allow for the calculation of the climb rate, climb angle, required runway length, range, and other specifications for a given airplane (with a given weight and at a given density altitude). Airplane design books give similar equations that make it possible to determine (given some parameters such as airplane weight) how much wing area would be needed in order for takeoff and landing to be possible at a certain runway, how much fuel would be needed to carry a certain payload a certain distance, and how much engine power would be needed in order to achieve a certain climb rate.
