flying bulls

The Flying Bulls helicopter fleet is a remarkable collection of meticulously maintained and restored rotary-wing aircraft, each with its own unique history and often, a storied past in military or civilian service before finding its home with the Red Bull-backed aviation group.

This impressive assemblage typically includes models like the legendary Bell AH-1 Cobra, a former attack helicopter that now dazzles crowds with its aerobatic displays, and the iconic Bo105, known for its exceptional agility, which allows it to perform maneuvers usually associated with fixed-wing aircraft.

Beyond their individual historical significance, these helicopters are kept in pristine condition, showcasing the highest standards of aviation maintenance and engineering, and are frequently seen performing breathtaking airshows and demonstrations around the world, embodying the spirit of precision and performance.

These Flying Bulls helicopters are not merely museum pieces; they are actively flown by highly skilled pilots who push the boundaries of what is thought possible with rotary-wing flight, captivating audiences with their dynamic routines. The team's commitment extends beyond just flying; they are dedicated to preserving aviation heritage, ensuring that these classic aircraft continue to inspire future generations of pilots and aviation enthusiasts.

Through their public appearances, the Flying Bulls helicopters serve as a vibrant link to aviation's past while simultaneously demonstrating the cutting-edge capabilities of these engineering marvels, highlighting the enduring appeal and versatility of helicopter design and operation.
Whilst the personnel had been discussing the company for some time, The Flying Bulls was formally created in 1999 almost co-inciding with its relocation from Innsbruck to Salzburg.
