Team Flying Manual

This manual was published in 2008 – team flying is evolving and changing all the time with maneuvers and methodology being quite different from team to team, which is one of the things that makes it so special… What makes it attainable for anyone though, are the concepts, maneuvers and commands that have become more or less “bread and butter” with just about any Rev team worldwide – this manual can help you learn some of those team fundamentals (PDF downloads available in English or Spanish).
