It is not often that a fully aerobatic airplane is certified. But just this week the team at Bentonville, Arkansas-based Game Composites saw their GB1 GameBird receive its certification. The FAA signed the Part 23 paperwork yesterday — about four months after the European Aviation Safety Agency gave its approval.

Key Takeaways:
- Game Composites' GB1 GameBird, a fully aerobatic airplane, has received FAA certification, achieving this milestone in a remarkably quick four years.
- Designed by aerobatic pilot Philipp Steinbach, the aircraft is highly capable, performing unlimited aerobatics with impressive specs like +/- 10 G and a 400 deg/sec roll rate.
- Its versatility allows it to easily transition from a high-performance aerobatic platform to a stable cross-country aircraft with a 1,000 nm range by adjusting its center of gravity.
