[4] In 1980, Aaron worked on the air rescue program for NASA's Space Shuttle, and he founded his own company, FX Helicopters in Westlake Village, California in 1997.
Chuck Aaron travels around the world as a keynote and aviation speaker, and was recently interviewed at the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum.
He is also an FAA certificated Airframe and Powerplant Mechanic, and has assembled many helicopters, including TAH-1F Cobras from surplus parts.
[7] Aaron performed aerobatic maneuvers—loop, roll, vertical climb, Split S, Cuban Eight, Immelman, and "Chuckcevak" (modified Lomcovak)—at air shows and other demonstrations in an MBB Bo 105, with proprietary modifications invented by Aaron, that allow it to perform maneuvers previously impossible for helicopters.
[9] Since 2019, Aaron provides helicopter aerobatics training, consulting services and travels throughout the world as a guest speaker.
