Aus Wikipedia. Nicht dargestellt. Auszug: The Aero L-39 Albatros is a high-performance jet trainer aircraft developed in Czechoslovakia to meet requirements for a "C-39" (C for cvi?ny - trainer) during the 1960s to replace the L-29 Delfin. It was the first of the second-generation jet trainers, and the first turbofan-powered trainer produced, and was later updated as the L-59 Super Albatros and as the L-139 (prototype L-39 with engine Garrett TFE731). The design is still produced in an evolved state as the L-159 ALCA, while more than 2,800 L-39s still serve with over 30 air forces around the world. The Albatros - the most widely used jet trainer in the world - is versatile, seeing duty in light-attack missions as well as in basic and advanced pilot training. The L-39 (under the name Prototype X-02) first flew on 4 November 1969 and was piloted by Rudolf Ducho?, main factory's test pilot. Serial production began in 1971. The design is Czechoslovak (Czech) - the construction of Aero's chief designer Jan Vl?ek. The L-39 Albatros is a widely flown trainer/light attack aircraft similar in mission to the Italian MB339. Until now is in service with various former Soviet allies. The low, slightly swept wing has a double-taper planform, 21/2-deg dihedral from the roots, a relatively low aspect ratio, and 261/2-gal US (100-liter) fuel tanks permanently attached to the wingtips . The trailing edge has double-slotted trailing edge flaps inboard of mass-balanced ailerons; the flaps are separated from the ailerons by small wing fences. The tall, swept vertical tail has an inset rudder. Variable-incidence horizontal stabilizers with inset elevators are mounted at the base of the rudder and over the exhaust nozzle.
