Two new MiGFlug trailers available in nice quality.
We are very happy to show you our latest MiGFlug company videos. The video edited in October and early November 2012 gives an overview of all the fighter jet rides MiGFlug currently offers: The MiG-29 Flight, Edge of Space flight in the MiG-29, the brand-new MiG-15 flight in Poland, the Hawker Hunter flight in the Swiss Alps and the European L-39 Albatros flights in Czech Republic, Germany, France, Spain as well as the US L-39 Albatros flights in Tampa FL, Houston TX and Los Angeles. The raw footage for this new MiGFlug trailer has been produced in the last three years, partly we profited from TV teams and the nice equipment they had. An Example is German Pro7 with Galileo (the underwing camera) or the BBC filming "Year of Adventures" with Ben Fogle. I include here a short making of I took with my iPhone: So as you can see, we risk our life to produce a nice trailer for you 😉MiG-29 flight, MiG-15 ride, Hawker Hunter in Switzerland and L-39 Albatros
Here is the new MiGFlug trailer. We hope you like it. If you do, it would be great to vote or leave a comment on Youtube (and subscribe to our channel with more nice video!). The new trailer is here to show what we currently have to offer: MiG-29 aerobatics flight, MiG-29 Edge of Space flight, Supersonic flights, Aero L-39 Albatros flight in many different locations in Europe and the US, and the Hawker Hunter flight in Switzerland. And, new in 2012/2013: The MiG-15 flight in Poland. A true classic, the first fighter jet with a jet-to-jet kill in history! As you hopefully know, what we show you in these video is not some fighter pilot or airshow footage. All these features jets are available for fighter jet rides! For more information have a look at http://www.migflug.comThe Edge of Space video in HD - MiG-29 flight to the stratosphere
We also did produce a new Edge of Space video. It is the first in HD quality. As you might know, the MiG-29 Fulcrum is the last fighter jet available for supersonic fighter jet rides and Edge of Space flights. During the MiG-29 Edge of Space flight you can climb up to 75,500ft or 23,000m. The MiG-29 flight is not only very impressive and powerful (especially when the afterburner starts!). The view from this altitude is just incredible and all Edge of Space customer will tell you: It's not possible to describe it with words. You can see the curvature of the earth. The sky above you is black, with countless stars (also at daylight!). The atmosphere is surrounding the Earth like a blue fog, but that's far, far away. Because you are deep in the stratosphere! Our friend Wojciech from Poland created a little mind map about the MiG-29 Edge of Space flight - with most of the important information easily available. Have a look:

Related Questions
How high can you fly on a MiG-29 Edge of Space flight?
On a MiG-29 Edge of Space flight you can climb to about 75,500 feet, roughly 23,000 metres, deep in the stratosphere. From that altitude you can see the curvature of the Earth, a black sky filled with stars even in daylight, and the thin blue atmosphere far below. It is as close to space as a civilian can get in a jet.
What can you see from the edge of space in a MiG-29?
From around 23,000 metres the view is otherworldly: the Earth's curvature stretches across the horizon, the sky overhead turns black with visible stars in broad daylight, and the atmosphere appears as a distant blue haze wrapping the planet. Passengers consistently say the sight is impossible to capture fully in words or on camera.
What altitude is considered the edge of space?
There is no single official line, but the "edge of space" is often associated with very high stratospheric altitudes where the sky turns black and Earth's curve becomes obvious. A MiG-29 reaches around 21,000 to 23,000 metres on these flights — not orbital height, but high enough for a near-space view. Read more on where space begins.
Which jet is used for Edge of Space flights?
The MiG-29 Fulcrum is the jet used for civilian Edge of Space flights. It is the last fighter still offered for supersonic and stratospheric passenger rides, operating in Russia. Its powerful afterburning engines let it zoom-climb to the stratosphere, and the same flights can also break the sound barrier. See the full MiG-29 experience.
What was historic about the MiG-15?
The MiG-15 was a milestone jet: it scored one of the first jet-versus-jet kills in history during the Korean War, ushering in the era of jet combat. Fast, heavily armed and simple, it shocked Western forces when it appeared over Korea and remains one of the most-produced jet fighters ever. It first clashed with US jets over MiG Alley.
Can civilians still book a supersonic flight?
Yes, but options are limited. The MiG-29 Fulcrum is the main fighter jet still offered for civilian supersonic flights, operating in Russia. It can break the sound barrier and also climb to the edge of space on the same sortie. As classic supersonic jets age and retire, these experiences are becoming increasingly rare.
