Aerobatic schools • Patrik Sjöberg runs Nordic Aerobatc Center at Sundbro near Uppsala, a very actve aerobatc school • Schooling on SE-GUV has temporarily stopped, but is expected to resume next year

Practice airf i elds • The only remaining airfeld close to Stockholm i Skå-Edeby. This is the airfeld with most aerobatc aircraf in Sweden, but it is impossible to practce aerobatcs above it. • Eskilstuna is a nearby airfeld where we have been able to practce above the feld, but they got noise complaints and now we cannot practce there during weekends. Daytme during the work week is stll ok. • Bratorsheden is a very good place. A bit of a ferry to get there, but very nice airfeld with an actve aerobatc community. It is threatened to be closed (not due to us) but we don’t know what happens.

2018 • There are ambitous ideas about various training camps • Unclear if anyone will partcipate in AWAC 2018 • Nordic Aerobatc Championship will be held in Sweden. An idea is to be in Skövde, we will see how it works out. Date needs to be set at MANIAC
