Question : How old do you have to be to do stunts in a plane? Do you give kids rides while you are doing stunts? If not Why?   Answer : Hello! "Stunt" flying, also called aerobatics, there is no age limit for taking aerobatic training, although most aerobatic instructors will want you to have completed your basic pilot training before moving to the more advanced world of aerobatics. Once you start learning aerobatics, you may want to enter competitions or try your hand at being an air show pilot. In the EAA Young Eagles program, we don't include aerobatics in our flights. The program is designed to be a basic introduction to flying and does not include the more advanced maneuvers required for aerobatics.
