Draken International To Display Aircraft At AirVenture

But Former Military Aircraft Will Not Be Performing In The Oshkosh Air Shows

Draken International, which bills itself as "the world's largest operator of ex-military fighter aircraft," will display two Douglas A-4K Skyhawks and two Aermacchi MB-339CB jet aircraft on-site at AirVenture 2013 in Oshkosh, WI. Draken is looking forward to the opportunity to debut the company's advanced capabilities for the commercial air services industry. These aircraft will not be used in any performance, but will serve as static displays. The public is welcome to view the aircraft up close over the week-long event from July 29 to August 4, 2013.

The two A-4Ks, Draken's flagship aircraft, and the two MB-339s will be on display in the Phillips Oil Display Square at AirVenture. A booth with will be set up with more information about Draken International and the aircraft. Pilots and crew will be available to answer any questions about these formidable fighter jets.

"Although these aircraft are not performing in the air show, we are pleased to be able to make them available for the public to view," said Draken CEO Jared Isaacman. "We invite everyone in attendance to come meet the pilots and maintainers and see these incredible aircraft up close."

The Draken A-4K Skyhawks are the optimal "multi-role" platform and are equipped with APG-66 Radar, Heads Up Display, Hands On Throttle and Stick, 1553 digital Bus and Radar Warning Receivers. The Aermacchi MB-339s are a perfect platform for Joint Terminal Air Control Attack Training and Close Air Support Training. These superb aircraft are precision accurate and provide a cost-effective platform to train our nation's military.

Draken International is a provider of commercial air services based out of the Lakeland Linder Regional Airport in Lakeland, FL.
