Aero Vodochody signed agreements with two contracted air training service companies for its L-39NG at the Farnborough Airshow on 17 July.

SKYTECH signed a binding agreement for the delivery of 10 L-39NG aircraft, as well as an option for a further six. SKYTECH's senior vice-president, Mal Sandford, said that the company would be working to create a range of contracting models for potential customers, including pay-by-the-hour and leasing options.

“There’s shortfalls in training, there’s shortfalls in human resources for air forces, and there’s also a shortfall in budgets. So, we will provide a very innovative way to allow air forces to come and fly this – not in terms of a training school, but give governments access to these aircraft on a cheaper scale,” Sandford said.
