C-101 Aviojet Eagle Patrol History:
The C-101, training airplane of the Spanish Air Force, is
constructed by Construcciones Aerona'uticas S.A. (C.A.S.A.) entirely
in Spain. The C-101 is an advanced trainer that allows a complete
aeronautical education, from first stage of the flight learning to
those own ones of the transition to the airplanes battle. Its good
aerodynamic properties, security, facility of handling, low cost of
operation and complete instrumentation provide a suitable airplane
for flight education as well as for acrobatic flight.
Although the first flight took place on June 29 1977, test
flights did not begin until April 17 1978. Performance was found to
be better than anticipated by the designers. An initial Spanish Air
Force order for 60 machines was placed, a dedicated trainer version
designated C-101EB-01 by CASA and E.25 Mirlo ("Blackbird") by the
air force. The first aircraft entered service on March 17, 1980.
