Flying a Eurofighter is already exciting as it is. But flying a brand new Eurofighter that’s never been flown before? That’s seriously next level. As a Eurofighter test pilot, Stefan Auer puts the fighter jet’s features through their paces before they are made available to the air forces.
As key assets in NATO’s air policing missions, Eurofighters stand ready 24/7 across Europe to protect our air space. When an unauthorised aircraft is detected, every second counts to intercept the unwelcome guest. This makes thorough testing all the more important throughout the production process.
Hear directly from Stefan about his experience as a test pilot at Airbus.
