In September 2020, I had the privilege to fly the VL3 at Teuge Airport, the Rotax 912 ULS version of this beautiful airplane. JMB Aircraft picked up on my enthusiasm and invited me over, to visit their facilities and eventually fly the even more spectacular VL3 915! See full description...
The story of this trip to JMB Aircraft started at the AirFair at Teuge Airport, back in September 2020. I enlisted for a demo flight in their Rotax ULS (100 hp) powered VL3. During enlisting for the demo flight, I asked them if it was OK to document the flight on camera and to do an interview with the demo pilot. Little did I know it would be one of the most exciting flights for me in a Micro Light Aircraft.
JMB Aircraft, the manufacturer of the VL3, liked that episode so much, that they invited me over to their factory in Choceň and airport at Vysoké Mýto, both situated in the eastern part of the Czech Republic. Not only was I allowed to see and film a lot of their designing and production processes and to share the company's history, I was also invited for a test flight in their fastest VL3 yet; the VL3 915! This VL3 is powered with a Rotax 915is, an engine that produces an excess of 140 horsepower.
All in all, I had a very exciting couple days in the Czech Republic, which yielded 70 GB of raw video and audio footage. Of that huge pile of footage, I hope to release a total of three episodes. This one is the first, telling the story of JMB Aircraft.

DISCLAIMER
Ever since I received my pilot license, I shared my passion for aviation with a lot (and I mean a lot!) of passengers! Because I enjoy sharing my aviation passion so much, I would like to share it with the rest of the world too! But since taking on 7 billion people as my passenger isn't really practical, sharing my passion via KZbin is... ;)
Where a lot of aviation channels on KZbin focus on General Aviation at the west side of the Atlantic, my channel focuses on Light Sport Aviation in Europe, primarily Holland and Germany. Light Sport Aircraft are also known as 'Microlight Aircraft' or 'Ultralight Aircraft'.
The reason I make these videos is to exchange aviation stories and learn and improve by sharing. And because I love to share!
