The Hawker Hunter has been in service with the Swiss Air Force until 1994! The Hunter has a lot of fans in Switzerland up to today, and a couple of former Swiss Air Force Hunters are still flying in Switzerland today. One of the well known and popular Hunters is the single seat \"Papyrus Hunter\" who looks like a Newspaper. But there are also two seaters available for <a title=\"Hawker Hunter Flight\" href=\"http:\/\/www.migflug.com\/en\/jet-fighter-flights\/flying-with-a-jet\/hawker-hunter-in-switzerland.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hawker Hunter Flights<\/a> in Switzerland. At the moment, Switzerland is the only place to fly Hunters - since the end of Thunder City in 2010. British Hunters are single seaters or lack airworthiness at the moment.\r\n<h2>Hawker Hunter Flight in the mountains<\/h2>\r\nAnd for sure the Swiss Hunter Flights is unbeatable. Switzerland is probably the best place on earth for a <a title=\"military aircraft flight\" href=\"http:\/\/www.migflug.com\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">military aircraft flight<\/a>. The Topography with the fantastic mountains, valleys and glaciers is just unbeatable - and the former Swiss Air Force pilots that fly the Hunters know the places very well. Have a look at this fantastic but rather old \u00a0video to see what is possible in Switzerland:\r\n\r\n<iframe hcb-fetch-image-from=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/gyaHWkox9K0\" title=\"Stunning passenger Hunter flight in the Swiss mountains\" width=\"1080\" height=\"810\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gyaHWkox9K0?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\r\n\r\nBy the way: Today the jet fighters have HD recording, so the result would be much better.\r\n<h2>Flights from Former Mountain Airbases: St. Stephan and Ambri<\/h2>\r\nTakeoff and Landing itself are an adventure. October 12th, 2011, we had a former US Navy pilot flying in the Hunter, from Ambri airbase. He was used to land on aircraft carriers but was very impressed by the landing in the very narrow valley. After the flight he said he probably couldn't land his aircraft in such a place without much training before. The Swiss Hunter pilots said the rather couldn't imagine landing on an aircraft carrier.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.migflug.com\/jetflights\/fly-the-hawker-hunter-in-the-swiss-alps.html\/sony-dsc-11\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1467\"><img data-opt-id=177088666  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1467 alignleft\" title=\"Hawker-Hunter-Flight.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/ml5psubhxdln.i.optimole.com\/cb:0e0_.b970\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2011\/10\/Hawker-Hunter-Flight1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"602\" height=\"403\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ml5psubhxdln.i.optimole.com\/cb:0e0_.b970\/w:1613\/h:1080\/q:mauto\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2011\/10\/Hawker-Hunter-Flight1.jpg 3872w, https:\/\/ml5psubhxdln.i.optimole.com\/cb:0e0_.b970\/w:300\/h:201\/q:mauto\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2011\/10\/Hawker-Hunter-Flight1.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ml5psubhxdln.i.optimole.com\/cb:0e0_.b970\/w:768\/h:514\/q:mauto\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2011\/10\/Hawker-Hunter-Flight1.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ml5psubhxdln.i.optimole.com\/cb:0e0_.b970\/w:1024\/h:685\/q:mauto\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2011\/10\/Hawker-Hunter-Flight1.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 602px) 100vw, 602px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nAmbri is a particularly interesting place. Swiss Military Aircraft have been stored in the mountains nearby. We are frequently asked by customers from UK and the US if this is a fairy tale. It is not! It can be seen in Ambri and other places. There is a ramp down to a tunnel which leads under the motorway and into the mountain behind: The aircraft storage facilities in Ambri inside the mountain ridge are empty but still available.\u00a0These mountain storage facilities are not used for the F\/A-18 Hornet as the aircraft is too large, but there are still F-5E Tiger Aircraft stored in mountains today.\r\n\r\nOur US Navy Pilot took a video from his Hawker Hunter landing in Ambri. Very sporty landing and watch for that car crossing!\r\n\r\n<iframe hcb-fetch-image-from=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/dwRNmZiFXYQ\" title=\"Hawker Hunter Landing in Ambri, Switzerland\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dwRNmZiFXYQ?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\r\n\r\nThis video has been filmed on October 12th, 2011.\r\n<h2>The black-yellow Tiger Hunter<\/h2>\r\nWe have often been asked why the Hunter Team painted the Hunter in a black-yellow tiger painting in 2009. I personally prefer camo paintings for all former military aircraft. Fantasy paintings are just not authentic. However, the tiger painting is not really a fantasy painting but has a historical background. One night Swiss fighter pilot students painted a hunter in black and yellow tiger design, a joke their instructors didn't find so funny.\r\n\r\nTodays painting is an exact remake from old photos.\r\n\r\nHawker Hunter flight dates are always out in January\/February. Usually flights start in June and end in October. The best locations are St. Stephan and the new location in Ambri.\n\n<!-- mf-faq -->\n\n<div class=\"mf-faq-block\"><style>.mf-faq-block{margin:34px 0}.mf-faq-item:not([open]) .mf-faq-answer{display:none !important}.mf-faq-block h2.mf-faq-h{padding-top:22px;margin-bottom:14px}.mf-faq-item{border:1px solid #e2e8f5;border-radius:8px;margin:0 0 10px;background:#fff}.mf-faq-item summary{list-style:none;cursor:pointer;padding:15px 50px 15px 18px;font-weight:600;color:#1a1a1a;position:relative;line-height:1.45;user-select:none}.mf-faq-item summary::-webkit-details-marker{display:none}.mf-faq-item summary::after{content:\"+\";position:absolute;right:18px;top:50%;transform:translateY(-50%);font-size:1.5em;font-weight:400;color:#5C91FF;line-height:1}.mf-faq-item[open] summary::after{content:\"\\2013\"}.mf-faq-item[open] summary{border-bottom:1px solid #eef1f8}.mf-faq-item summary:hover{background:#f5f8ff}.mf-faq-answer{padding:14px 18px;color:#333;line-height:1.6}.mf-faq-answer p{margin:0}.mf-faq-answer a{color:#5C91FF}<\/style><h2 class=\"mf-faq-h\">Related Questions<\/h2><details class=\"mf-faq-item\"><summary>Where can you fly a Hawker Hunter today?<\/summary><div class=\"mf-faq-answer\"><p>Switzerland is essentially the only place where civilians can fly in a Hawker Hunter.
