The Extra 300L is used by top aerobatic and air show performers worldwide. Although a prominent focus of our training courses is to teach recovery tech-niques within the limits of YOUR aircraft, our Extra 300Ls are commercially certified aerobatic trainingplatforms, stressed to +/- 10G’s, have a roll rate of360°/second and boast a published max gross climb rate in excess of 3200 fpm making it one of the safest and most capable aircraft in the sky. Our onboard multi-view digital audio/video system gives you a recorded keep-sake of your training.

APS exposes pilots to “edge of the envelope”maneuvering not possible during normalemergency flight training due to the aerobaticlimitations of standard training aircraft. Pilots of all skill levels are taught how to assess thesituation and then take immediate action torecognize, avoid and recover fromin-flight unusual attitude scenarios.

APS Emergency Maneuver Training is committed to improving safety of flight. Our professional pilot training courses
thoroughly address primary issues related to Loss of Control In Flight (LCIF), one of
the leading causes of commercial aviation fatal accidents worldwide.
“My Emergency Maneuvers/Upset Training was awesome. Imagine spending several hours in anaircraft that will do just about anything you ask it to, under the tutelage of top-notch former military flight instructors! If you read the magazine articles and accident reports, you can easily get the idea that any deviation from the normal flight regime is a no-win disaster situation. This training explored the edges of the envelope and showed me that most unusualsituations have a response that will bring things back to “shiny side up” in no time. My confidence as a pilot increased 1000 percent after taking the course. The aircraft were beautiful (relatively new Extras – not old warbirds), and the staff and instructors wereexceptionally professional and courteous. The ground school classes followed a good curriculum and were highly educational.
Was it scary? Not after I realized how capable the aircraft and the instructors are. Was it expensive? Not compared to always wondering if “Caution – wake turbulence” would be the last words I ever heard. Was it fun? It was absolutely a blast!”

“The Aviation Performance Solutions LLC (APS) Emergency Maneuver Training program is far more comprehensive than the majority of ‘other’ courses offered out there. In my opinion, the equipment used by APS and the experience level of its instructors are espe-cially well-suited to the corporate and airline trainingmarket.”
