We don't in Victoria (Vancouver Island, not Vancouver, waay over 
"there"), in Contra, rambunctious English, trad. squares, or Ceilidh 
(Scots, English), etc.

I've seen most mentions of aerials in English Ceilidh (eCeilidh), in 
England. Nothing recently mentioned on the main lists for that, however 
a great number of dance series seemingly either don't allow them, don't 
encourage them, or have the caller issue appropriate cautions (for the 
legs flying out of a basket swing, which seems to be the most common 
form of aerials.)

I've not seen, or heard of dipping issues, policies or controls over 
different dance forms in any of the locations I attend or read of. Or I 
may have missed them.
