Question New Member Long Time Flyer

From JohnM. . . just registered - actively flying for some 25 years. . . able to fly regularly during the season. . . am anxious to learn the stick movements for some aerobatic and 3 D manoeuvers that are new to me. . e.g. flat spins, rolling circles, etc. plus any 3D manoeuvers. . . are there sights around that show how these are done? Have a good simulator and am anxious to give it a work out before attempting in real life. . . Cheers
