Super Chipmunk Airshow Performance

The Super Chipmunk is a crowd favorite with it's ability to stay down low and close to show center. In an airshow, variety is the key and the Super Chipmunk gives the crowd a real thrill with the entire show easily visible to everyone.

Unlike the small biplanes and many of the newer monoplanes, when the Super Chipmunk is upside down it really looks like it! With 300 horsepower and plenty of wing area it is capable of performing breathtaking aerobatics.

Greg is a commercial pilot and flight instructor who has been flying aerobatics for over 20 years and has flown more than 100 different types of aircraft. He flys a show that displays the capabilities of the airplane by performing a full range of figures that are entertaining and keeps the crowd engaged. There is of course plenty of noise and smoke too!

Airshow Sequence

The following airshow sequence is shown using Aresti notation. If you look carefully you will notice that most of the figures appear very similar to what the airplane is actually doing so even if you are not familiar with the notation you will likely be able to get a good idea of the elements in the performance. Note that the red portions indicate that the plane is upside down or "pushing" negative Gs.
