Top-notch aerobatic performer, Rob Holland, amazed the crowds at EAA AirVenture 2012. ANN had a chance to talk with Rob and asked him about his career as an airshow performer.
Rob said that while going to college for an aviation degree he made a trip to the local airport and saw a pristine Steen Skybolt airplane parked on the ramp. He asked the owner if he could take a picture of the airplane and the owner offered to take him for a flight. One flight was all it took; Rob was hooked on aerobatics.
Rob said that he likes his routines to be full of nonstop continuous action. This video provides proof that Rob has achieved this goal. You’ll see Rob in action from inside the cockpit and as the airshow spectators see it. Rob explains some of the maneuvers while you watch them being performed. Tighten your seatbelt and enjoy the ride.
