Many TV crews come to us to do some reports with our jet fighters. Recently we had two TV presenters, Luc Gilson from the Belgian TV, and Steve Backshall from the BBC. Both took the very hard bet to present their shows whilst actually flying and doing maneuvers. This is very difficult to do because you would need to focus on your text, what to say, and sustaining the Gs at the same time. This can be tricky. Overall all went well, it always does, and it is a fun day out for us. However we have to

We love flying jet fighters, because we can share our passion with you, but also because it gives you taste of the action, and you can feel what it would be like to be a fighter pilot. One phase of the fun flight we particularly enjoy is when doing aerobatics. You do not need to do aerobatics to get the fun, but it offers a more special feeling about flying jets and the capabilities of the planes. One figure I personally love is the Immelmann, and when flying with us, we will let you try this on

We love flying jets, this is one of the most exhilarating things one can do. When flying our jet fighter from Paris, you will be able to enjoy great scenery, such as the rolling hills of Normandy, as well as experience a full aerobatic program. We always fly according to G tolerance so the flying experience remains great for you. But if you hold the Gs well, then you are on for a treat. Check out our video to see what it is like. We do barrels, loops, inverted flying, low level passes, Cuban eig

We will position our Fouga Magister in Abbeville for Easter 2011. What that means is we will be able to reach very quickly the beautiful cliffs of Etretat. This is a fantastic experience for anyone wishing to live thrills of a jet fighter ride. We take off from Abbeville, then fly towards the coast. Then we dive and fly along the cliffs. This is a magical moment. We also fly low level over the sea so that you can feel the speed of the jet fighter. Want to see what it looks like ? Check out our v

Live n’ deadly TV Presenter Steve Backshall is doing a bit on the Peregrine Falcon. And to demonstrate how incredible this bird of prey is, he decided to replicate the maneuvers of the Falcon in our jet fighter. We had tremendous fun being around Steve and his crew and were quite interested as well as finding out how Steve would cope with G force and the jet fighter experience. Check it out on the BBC Live’n’deadly show and on their website.
In the meantime, here are some pics of the da

Fly the L39 Albatros in Switzerland. With winter coming fast, we are very pleased to announce that we will add more jet fighter flights in Switzerland this winter. Flying on a bright day, with clear blue sky, crisp air, cold temperatures and the snow capped mountains is more than extraordinary. The beauty of flying in Switzerland is that as soon as you take off, it’s already magical. Our L39 Albatros jet fighter is based in Sion, which is a valley in the middle of a triangle made of Montreux,

Everyone knows what it’s like for an airplane to land: The slow maneuvering into an approach pattern, the long descent, and the brakes slamming on as soon as the plane touches down, which seems to just barely bring it to a rest a mile later. Birds, however, can switch from barreling forward at full speed to lightly touching down on a target as narrow as a telephone wire. Why can’t an airplane be more like a bird, asked MIT researchers, who have demonstrated a new control system that allows a

Air Cadets from 121 (Nuneaton) Squadron recently had a visit from members of the Vulcan to the Sky Trust, who came along to talk to them about the last flying exampl
