Incredible Adventures offered its first L-39 flights back in 1993, when the company was known to the world as MIGS etc. At the time, anyone wishing to break the sound barrier in a MiG over Russia was required to first "prove themselves" in the cockpit of an L-39 Albatros. The ride in the L-39 gave adventurers a preview of high g-forces and aerobatics and helped them to "get used to" the experience of wearing a helmet and oxygen mask.
A flight in the L-39 is no longer a prerequisite for flying a MiG-29, but the company still strongly encourages its clients to arrange a flight in the popular jet trainer. Today's Russian L-39 rides take off from the town of Vyazma, located roughly three hours by car from Moscow. Adventurers fly with a member of Team Rus, Russia's popular aerobatic team.
