There is a Acro Sport II for sale and in our budget. I was looking for input from anyone on their experience on this aircraft and the suitability for a "newbie" pilot. Of course she will get the tail wheel transition and intro to aerobatics instruction. Thanks for your help Wayne S.Alberta --- ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 11:07:50 PM PST US From: Frank Baldwin Subject: Re: Aerobatic-List: Acro Sport II --> Aerobatic-List message posted by: Frank Baldwin Wayne wrote: > > --> Aerobatic-List message posted by: "Wayne" > > Greetings > > My wife is just finishing up her private license and wants to get into > aerobatics.

The Acro Sport may be similar. I flew it off his hard surface narrow runway and took it to a wide grass field where he checked himself out and is now back operating from the hard surface runway. He got checked out quickly, so I can't report on its acro capabilities that I did not get to try. Have fun! Frank
