The Experience
Experience the excitement of flying an L-39 Albatros Jet Fighter in Los Angeles, complete with nerve-wracking manoeuvres and expert instruction from our experienced fighter pilots and instructors.
Prepare for aerobatics like those seen in Hollywood movies as you fly high in the sky or skim just above the ground, feeling the powerful acceleration and agility of the L-39 fighter jet. Manoeuvres like rolls, loops and steep ascents will give you a taste of real military training programs, all while ensuring your safety under the guidance of your skilled pilot.
The following maneuvers are part of the flight program:
- Rolls
- Immelmann
- Loops
- Split-S
- Steep ascent
- Dives
- Tail-chase
- Extreme low passes (a few meters above ground)
Upon arrival at the airport, you'll meet your pilot for a briefing where you can discuss the flight program and define your preferences. Once suited up and briefed on safety systems, you'll head to the ramp where the aircraft awaits.
After take-off clearance, you'll have the chance to control the aircraft yourself, performing exhilarating manoeuvres like rolls and loops.
After landing, commemorate your flight with a souvenir photo and receive a certificate of achievement. Then, toast to your fantastic adventure and relish in the memories made during this unforgettable experience.
Important Information
Your day begins at the airfield where you will meet your instructor and get a complete briefing on the ground. They will talk you through the safety procedures, show you around the cockpit layout and explain how the flight will go so you know what to expect before leaving the runway.
Once you are strapped securely into the ejector seat and helmet-checked, the pilot fires up the engine. As you taxi out and take off into the skies above Los Angeles, you will feel the immense force of the jet engine pushing you back into your seat.
Once airborne, your pilot takes you through a range of high-g aerobatic manoeuvres. As you pull into steep ascents, tight rolls, and loops, you will get a real sense of how fast and agile a fighter jet actually is. The pilot adjusts the flight depending on what you want to do, whether that means keeping things smoother or pushing into sharp, low-altitude flybys.
Because you are guided by a seasoned flight crew, you can focus entirely on the flight itself. When the 45-minute air session is up, the pilot brings the aircraft back down to the runway for landing, finishing up with a chance to take photos next to the jet before heading home.
