SUNRISE AVIATION

HAMMERHEAD TURN

The Hammerhead (sometimes called "stall turn") is the first vertical maneuver taught in most aerobatic programs. In addition to giving a recovery from vertical flight, the maneuver provides a convenient 180° course reversal and an excellent way to rebuild airspeed (it is not necessary to begin and end at the same altitude).
