A sleek L-39 Albatros at rest during the 2016 Pacific Coast Dream Machines show. Note the trailing-arm landing gear design, which allows for rough field operations. First flown in 1968, the Czech-built Albatros is the most widely used jet trainer in the world with 2,800 still in use with various air forces around the world. A popular jet warbird, more than 250 are registered with the FAA. Nikon D7100 w/70-200mm.
