With more than 7,800 hours of flight time under his wings, pilot Mick Koutahi of MPK Aerobatics conducts lessons for aspiring aerobats in a conventional-gear Decathlon aircraft. Each one-on-one class commences with about 90 minutes of ground-bound instruction, which covers aerobatic and plane basics as well as safety training, parachute briefing, and high-speed aviator jargon. Once aviator apprentices are comfortable enough to lift off, they take control of the two-seater to practice spins, Dutch rolls, and Swiss jelly rolls—classes vary based on individual abilities. Depending on air-traffic control and weather conditions, the flight may last from 45 minutes to an hour.
