Aero L-39 Albatros

The Aero L-39 Albatros is used as an agile jet trainer, tactical reconnaissance aircraft and light ground support fighter. The jet is mostly used to train future pilots of larger aircraft such as the MiG-29 Fulcrum. The Albatros is however still used in many Air Force as an attack aircraft for air to ground support missions or as a tactical reconnaissance aircraft. Since its commissioning in 1971, over 2’800 aircraft have been built in various versions. The L-39 Albatros is a modern jet trainer of the same generation as the F-14 Tomcat or the MiG-23 Flogger and was launched only a short time before the American F-15 Eagle or the Russian MiG-29 Fulcrum.

A Popular Czech-built Jet Trainer

The L-39 Albatros originates from a Czech production line. The Aero L-39 Albatros was produced in large numbers by the Factories of Aero Vodochody, the worlds largest producer of military training aircraft. Apart from the popular L-39 Albatros, Aero Vodochody has also built its predecessor, the L-29 Delfin and its successor, the ground attack aircraft L-159 Alca. Furthermore, Aero Vodochody has been building MiG Models under license, such as the MiG-15 offered by MiGFlug in the Czech Republic.

We are proud to have our customers flown by the test pilots of this aircraft manufacturer in their own aircraft. These Aero test pilots are amongst the best and know their aircraft like nobody else in the world. And even after thousands of hours, they still enjoy every flight in their jets – you will feel it.
