Fly the Fouga Magister fighter jet
The Fouga Magister may not seem as sexy as other more modern military fighter planes, but do not let the looks fool you. The Fouga Magister is one of the best fighter jets ever built, extremely agile, easy to fly and very secure with its twin engines. It is so maneuverable that this fighter plane has been a long time favourite of many display teams around the world, including the French Patrouille de France, The Red Arrows and the Belgian Red Devils.
In today’s congested skies, the Fouga Magister is not there to deliver speed but extreme sensations. It has no comparison when it comes to doing aerobatics and pulling the Gs. Flying the Fouga Magister fighter jet is one experience you will never forget. You can fly our own plane in Beauvais, near Paris, or one of our partners in Kenosha, Wisconsin, USA.

Testimonial:
"The flight in the Fouga Magister jet from Le Touquet to Le Havre and back was utterly simply incredible. The roar of the engine. The G forces as the plane loops the loop. The stunning French country side flashing by just a few hundred feet below. The sensation of weightlessness as the plane falls to the greenery. One is left with a pounding heart due to the excitement and a little touch of fear!" - Tom H. - Kent, UK
