L39 Albatros: a short history
Friday, April 22nd, 2011
The Aero L-39 Albatros is a high-performance jet trainer aircraft developed in Czechoslovakia to meet requirements for a "C-39" (C for cvičný – trainer) during the 1960s to replace the L-29 Delfín. It was the first of the second-generation jet trainers, and the first turbofan-powered trainer produced, and was later updated as the L-59 Super Albatros and as the L-139 (prototype L-39 with engine Garrett TFE731). The design is still produced in an evolved state as the L-159 ALCA, while more thRead More....

Monday, April 4th, 2011
Check out our latest video. We fly the Fouga Magister in Northern France with a TV presenter and we pushed the limits… of the passenger!!! This was terribly good fun.

Jet fighter video along the cliffs
Friday, March 18th, 2011
We love to fly our jet fighter in Northern France as we can get really close to the cliffs. There are also many aerobatics axis where we can do many maneuvers. Check out this short video. The jet fighter ride is done in a Fouga Magister, one of the most agile jets ever made. It is recognizable by its V shaped tail. Twin engined, it is also one of the safest jet fighter to fly. And the bonus point is the large glass canopy for a great view of the scenery.
Doing our bit for the environment
Wednesday, March 16th, 2011
To fly a jet fighter consumes a lot of kerosene and off course is not the best thing for the environment. And although we love flying our jet fighters, we are also very much aware of the problems of the environment and what we will leave to our next generation. This is why we have signed up with Action Carbone, an NGO managed by Frenchman Yann Arthus Bertrand, and our now making a contribution each time we fly. BasicallRead More....

Aerobatics in a jet fighter
Thursday, March 3rd, 2011
Flying a jet fighter is a great experience, as long you as you get to experience some aerobatics to truly feel the plane. And the simplest maneuver you can experience is the barrel roll. The great thing about this figure is that anyone, with any plane, can achieve it. It is so easy and so un-dangerous that even commercial airliners can do it. As a matter of fact, the test pilot of the Boeing 727 did a barrel roll in front of the crowd dRead More....
Aerobatics in a jet fighter
Monday, February 14th, 2011
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 onRead More....

We love flying jets, this is one of the most exhilarating things one can do.

We do barrels, loops, inverted flying, low level passes, Cuban eigRead More....
No more L39 Albatros rides in Switzerland
Wednesday, January 19th, 2011
We are stopping flights on the L39 Albatros in Switzerland. This is sad news but unfortunately our partner in Sion was unable to continue for lack of a plane, which is a major point. We tried to shift our plane based in Pontoise and fly it to Switzerland for a while but in the end it did not work out and we have to stop the L39 albatros jet fighter ride from the Swiss Alps. We may resume in the future when we will find a serious and committed partner sharing our values and deliver great service Read More....
