Friday, January 7th, 2011

All the very best for 2011 from all of us. We wish you good health, happiness and success in all your endeavors. And to kick start the year, we would like to introduce you to “Fighter Pilots”. Based in Illinois, “Fighter Pilots” – the brand name of LRA Enterprises – is more of an event company but provide great flying experiences on the L39 Albatros jet fighter, as well as T6 Texan, Spitfire, and P51 Mustang. The objective of the team is to recreate the feel of flying a squadron, hence you get formation flying, simulated attacks and maneuvers… great fun.

The company caters for groups and individuals. For groups, they operate more of a team building operation whereas individuals will simply enjoy the fun of the experience with the care and professionalism of one of the pilots. So if you want to experience what it is like to be part of a fighter team, check them out. You can also fly the L39 Albatros jet fighter, but this one is mostly for training so you will need to have a valid license to get in.
