Breitling, the Swiss watch manufacturing company, has announced that the Breitling Jet Team will be conducting its first-ever U.S. tour during the 2015 air show season. Although the seven-ship L-39 team has performed together for nearly a decade in 36 countries, this will be its first visit to North America.
“It is a costly investment to support this Jet Team and I am grateful that our headquarters in Switzerland value Breitling’s involvement in the American world of aviation enough to share the Breitling Jet Team with us in the United States,” said Breitling USA President Thierry Prissert.
The Breitling Jet Team will perform at the world-famous EAA AirVenture Oshkosh and then also at the National Championship Air Races in Reno. Additional air shows and performances in the U.S. in 2015 will be announced as confirmed.
