The British Aerobatic Academy
![]() |
The British Aerobatic Academy is the only aerobatic academy in the UK. We are probably the best in the world and enjoy the huge experience of Mark Jefferies (British champion 9 times at Advanced and Unlimited and ranked 10th in the world at WAC 2009) and Adrian Willis (currently competing at Advanced level in Britain and having over 1,000 hours on Extra aircraft) We teach competition aerobatics at all levels, display flying and freestyle aerobatics. We also do tailwheel training.
Aircraft
We have a selection of aircraft, the Extra 300 for training that demands the greater gyroscopic capability, the Extra 200 which is capable of every aerobatic manouvre in the book and many that are not, a 450 hp Stearman, a 400hp Sukhoi 29 and we are acquiring a dedicated tail-wheel trainer to allow us to offer low cost training and private hire.

Aerobatic Flying Training
Want to learn how to fly aerobatics? At the British Aerobatic Academy we teach ab-initios and coach potential world champion aerobatic pilots; and we teach anybody between the two extremes. We tailor all of our aerobatic flying training around the student. Our students are given a study guide to follow to aid their flying training helping them to understand the control inputs used before the aerobatic flight and consolidate what has been used after the aerobatic flight.
Brazilian Link
The British Aerobatic Academy has agreed links with the Brazilian Aviation Group, visit GrupoAviation
Brazil's Cleber Valadão is the president of the group and has done a really splendid job uniting all like minded pilots in South America. We will work with Grupo Aviation to benefit aerobatics and hopefuly open the sport to a wider audience.
