Yer likely right though the Polish flight manual may have got some 'added bits' to the original just to keep the export market happy.
At any rate, here in Oz at YBAF i watched Bob Hoover do some twin/single/no-engine aerobatic manoeuvres in a twin engine aircraft, and apparently with a medical written out by CASA just for the air show..
Seems air shows can legitimately have their own rules set out side of a flight manual.
