How many hours do people reckon to go from no aerobatic experience to flying competitions at Standard Level? 150 hours? Is 150 hours aerobatics per year a reasonable figure? Is that what those who currently fly competitions do?

I know the Basic Aeros AOPA course is based on around 10 hours training, but I have no idea what is "the norm" for moving on from that to flying competitions and starting to do it well.
