Flight in an open biplane near Zurich

During the flight, you're not in a closed cockpit, but rather in the fresh air, wearing a pilot's leather cap and goggles! And you're sitting in the front seat, too. In an aircraft that's almost 90 years old!

The Bücker flights are carried out by highly experienced, former military pilots.

Bücker flights are very affordable due to the simple design of the aircraft and low fuel consumption.

The attractive biplane flight routes take you over Lake Walen, the Glarus Alps, through valleys, forests, and blooming mountain meadows. The pilot will adapt the route to your wishes and the season. He knows the area like the back of his hand from countless hours of flying in various aircraft and knows exactly what's attractive and when.

Bücker sightseeing flights are easy to book at short notice and involve minimal administrative effort. In case of bad weather, flights are rescheduled without any red tape.

Flights take place from spring to autumn by arrangement from about 20°C.

We recommend a longer flight to experience all aspects of the Bückerflug. Shorter flights typically fly around Lake Zurich, while longer flights take you to the Glarus Alps, over Lake Walen, toward Tödi, or even to Säntis and Lake Constance. The program and route can be tailored to your preferences and wishes.

You decide! Shorter flights usually fly in the Lake Zurich area, while longer flights use popular routes, e.g. Mountainous regions Glarus Region, Glaernisch, Tödi, Walensee or Prealps, Säntis, Lake Constance. The program and route will be tailored to your preferences and wishes.

First, you'll naturally take a closer look at this beautiful biplane. Your flying adventure in a historic biplane begins with an introduction to the Bücker Jungmann biplane. This is followed by a briefing and discussion of your preferred flight program. You'll then be prepared for the flight before the actual sightseeing flight begins. Afterwards, there's time for photos and a chat with the pilot, often followed by a drink in the attractive airfield bar.

Add an hour to the actual flight time. It's also up to you. Of course, you're welcome to chat with the pilot about your unforgettable flight, take photos together, or invite him for a drink.

Your highly experienced pilot will ensure that your Bücker Jungmann biplane sightseeing flight is simply fantastic and unforgettable. He will make every effort to tailor a flight program to your needs. His goal isn't to show off what he and the historic biplane are capable of. Rather, he will create a flight program that matches your preferences as closely as possible. Especially in aerobatics, he will ask you how you feel after each maneuver so he can adjust his program. You can combine aerial acrobatics with a scenic flight as you wish during your biplane sightseeing flight. Possible aerobatic figures and maneuvers include:

• Loops
• Roll
• Flight upside down or inverted
• Turn/Reversement
• Immelmann (upswing)
• Split-S
• Spin

You'll be in constant contact with your pilot. He'll ask you how you're feeling after each maneuver. If your stomach needs a break, you can always switch to the leisurely sightseeing flight program. And you might even find that you enjoy some maneuvers more than others.

Of course! Your loved ones are welcome at the airfield to accompany you during flight preparation, the briefing, takeoff, and finally, landing. Just watching is a blast, and during the flight, your companions can enjoy a coffee in the pleasant airfield cafe, complete with a playground and a fantastic view of the runway.

You are allowed to take photos and videos before and after the flight free of charge. Videos during the flight can be bookedTo do this, make sure to add the video option when booking your flight.

Much like the Bückers themselves, the pilot is a legend of Swiss aviation—both military and civilian. He has flown countless models, starting with the Bücker. You are in very good hands with him.

The Bücker Jungmann was the first aircraft developed by Bücker Flugzeugbau. In Germany, Switzerland, and many other countries, the Bücker Jungmann is a legend and well-known thanks to its often yellow livery. Because so many units were produced, many of which are still in excellent condition, the Bücker Jungmann is an extremely popular vintage aircraft. The Jungmann biplane was a military training aircraft that was also used by the Swiss Air Force from 1936 to 1971. The Swiss Bücker was produced under license by Dornier in Altenrhein.
