Roman Ovchinnikov is the 2018 World Advanced Aerobatic Champion

Published: 29th Aug 2018 by Civa News

During a week of hot days and occasional thunderstorms at Strejnic Airleid in Romania, in the 13th FAI World Advanced Aerobatic Championship Roman Ovchinnikov (RUS) emerged a worthy winner, with Bastien Le Roux (FRA) and Andrei-Mihai Serbu (ROM) close behind in the silver and bronze medal positions.

In the Team classification France took the top slot from runners-up USA and Romania. The full set of four programmes – Free Known and three Free Unknowns – was completed in good time, the Romanian organisers being complimented for a very well run event.

Full results are available as usual on the CIVA Results website.
