ARESTI CATALOG The Aresti Catalogue is the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale standards document outlining the aerobatic manoeuvres permitted in aerobatic competition. Designed by Spanish aviator Jose Louis de Aresti Aguirre, each figure in the catalogue is represented by lines, arrows, shapes and numbers representing the ideal form of the manoeuvre.

Solid lines represent "upright" or "positive-g" manoeuvres. Dashed lines represent "inverted" or "negative-g" manoeuvres and are usually coloured red. Stalled wing manoeuvres such as spins and snap (flick) rolls are represented by triangles. Arrows represent "rolling" manoeuvres (with numbers representing the extent/segments of the roll).

Each manoeuvre is also assigned a "K" or difficulty factor. During aerobatic competition, the judges mark the execution of each manoeuvre out of a possible score of 10. These marks are then multiplied by the "K" factor of each figure to give a total score for the flight.

The Aresti catalogue has been in official use since 1964.
