Flying Bulls


The Flying Bulls is a private aviation team located in Salzburg, Austria owned by Dietrich Mateschitz, the co-founder of Red Bull and consists of 13 airplanes and 6 helicopters The team was found by Sigi Angerer, former Tyrolean Airways pilot, in the 1980s when he bought a Trojan T-28B and brought it to Innsbruck, where he had it repaired. Shortly after that he bought a Grumman G44 Widgeon and half of a Vought F4U-4 Corsair. The second half belonged to Mateschitz, who flew it to Austria.

The fleet of the Flying Bulls includes:

Lockheed P-38 Lightning

There are several mechanics, who also are pilots, not only for the Flying Bulls.

Hangar-7 [1] is, as the name already says the seventh hangar of Salzburg Airport and the part, which can be entered by visitors. There are exhibits such as Formula One cars, the capsule which Felix Baumgartner jumped out of, the aircraft which also are flying and many other things.

The eighth hangar of Salzburg Airport, where the aircraft of the Flying Bulls are restored, repaired and stored. It has the same futuristic and modern style as the neighbouring Hangar-7. Hangar-8 is the first place new aircraft come to when they get restored.
