C150/152 Aerobat for rent near CLT?

[Snakum]

I need to rent a C150 or 152 Aerobat and an aerobatics instructor for a few hours anywhere near CLT, GSO, INT, RDU, etc., in late September or early October.

Been searching around the net and have come up empty-handed thus far.

Yeah ... I know Mike J in RUQ (nice guy), but I need an Aerobat to do some unusual attitude recovery ... spins, inverted recovery, etc. If you see a white Alarus CH2000 all over the sky on the ILS into 22L at VUJ ... that's me ... wrestling that squirrelly MF with the sticky rudder. I hate that airplane.

Thanks El Bucho ... I'll keep it in mind. I met a guy from the CLT area a couple years ago in EXX, who gave dual in an Aerobat, wearing chutes. I just can't seem to find anything on him, now, though.

I remember having his business car hanging up in the old office. Was left there by a previous instructor. Even had a few students that went and flew with the guy. My understanding was that he quit instucting some time arround the end of 2004/beginning of 2005.

Kershner is a great guy. He now does the ground portion and he has an instructor that does the flight. She is a nice lady also. If you get the AOPA pilot magazine, they have a big article on those two and the school. If you get in touch with them, could you post their prices? I used to know a few years back, but can't remember them.

Here is his website for all of the flight manuals he's written.

I was surprised to learn that Mr. K was the aero instructor there, which is the closest one to my location CLT. It is his book - The Basic Aerobatic Manual - that I used to teach myself basic unusual attitude recoveries, oddly enough.

I hope to be going this fall for the full aerobatics program.

Gad I miss doing that kind of stuff...nothing logged really but had rides and a little stick time in Buker Jungman (or Jungmister-cant remember which is the two seater), pitts S-2, RV-4, Clipped Cub, Stearman, Waco, Skybolt and yeah a 150 Aerobat.

I still think the Buker was the best...

Good call
...it's Larry Morris.

 

[Propnose]

I didn't know Larry taught acro in a Super D! He did my commercial checkride. Is he still around instructing? I met a guy a couple times that had a 150 aerobat at Lincolnton. Not sure if he is still flying though, and I can't remember his name.

 

[El Bucho]

Just remembered that in KPVG, Eads Flight School, they have a Decathalon, and a Pitts S2B. They at least used to. Haven't been around there in while.
