One of the objectives of the Clin d'Ailes Foundation and its support association Espace Passion is to maintain a
high-quality aeronautical patrimony, and especially in its initial condition, i.e. in flying conditions.
The Hunter Trainer and the two-seater Mirage III have thus been restored and can be presented at air shows. Flights with passengers provide the
financial funding for the necessary training of the pilots. The number of annual flights is limited to this training.
