Hollywood Top Gun: The Plane & the Team

The L-39 Albatross

The L-39 jet trainer was born in Czechoslovakia and made its international debut at the 1977 Paris Air Show.

Known for being extremely agile and providing a spectacular view from both cockpits, the subsonic L-39 is still used for training by many European air forces.

The modern, single engine trainer / light-attack aircraft features a pressurized cabin, air conditioning and tandem seating. It’s rated for +8 / -4 g’s and is perfect for performing a variety of aerobatic maneuvers. The L-39C is known to be highly reliable and easy to maintain.
