Pattern vs Aerobatic
I hear/read people who say "I fly pattern" or "this is a pattern plane" vs "this is an aerobatic plane". Is there a difference? Isn't it all flying maneuvers in a precise manner? What differentiates them? What makes a pattern plane a pattern plane vs aerobatic? I know that an IMAC plane needs to be scale of a certain size, but beyond that, and the nuances of particular models, is there a difference in the flying?
