Description
Adventure of a lifetime! An incredible heart-pounding one-hour ride on an L39 Jet (Russian Mig Trainer.) Take your ride on a Saturday from Lancaster Municipal Airport, 730 Ferris Rd., Lancaster.
The FAA intends surplus military aircraft (a.k.a. “warbirds”) to be flown for “exhibition”, which generally means display – on the ground and in the air – at air shows. In order to maintain proficiency for these activities, the FAA requires pilots to fly regularly… and during those flights we’re allowed to take passengers. The L-39 is an amazingly stable yet responsive aircraft and a real joy to fly. You will be seated in the back seat. We will be demonstrating the various flight characteristics of the Albatros as we go along. Basic maneuvers include aileron rolls, barrel rolls, loops, Cuban-8s, reverse Cuban-8s, wing-overs, chandelles, the split-S, the Immelman, high-G turns, rapid vertical climbs and dives, and even occasional periods of straight and level flight. Next time you watch “Top Gun” you’ll be able to say, “Hey… I’ve done that.”
