Historical
Your flights from Podhořany in detail
RAF Station Czechoslovakia maintains a collection of original aircraft in Podhořany with direct links to the history of Czechoslovakian pilots in the Royal Air Force. The Avro Anson Mk.I MH120, after its approximately ten-year restoration, is considered the world's only remaining flying Avro Anson of the original Mk.I version, while the Miles Magister N3827 is known to have been flown by Czechoslovakian RAF pilot Jan Mokrejš in 1942.
The two De Havilland Tiger Moths (N9503 and R5246) are genuine former RAF trainers from 1939 and 1940, which you can experience in an open cockpit – and upon request, in formation flying. The Aero 145 VH-DUH, on the other hand, represents a different chapter: This elegant Czechoslovakian classic touring aircraft completed its ferry flight to Australia in 1961 and returned to the Czech Republic under its own power in 2024.
