FLV Aérosports is a set of human and technical competences entirely dedicated to François Le Vot and his partners’support. The complexity and international standing of aerobatic mandate a proper structure which offers:
- Facilities: hangars and runways
- Planes: maintenance and covering
- Staff: mechanics and coaches
- Communication: public relations and partnerships
Every competition or meeting has to be meticulously prepared by the pilot and his team. From the operational production, the representative mission, to the flight execution each step is thinking, testing, checking and re-checking. The partner is totally associated during all the process of the meeting or championship he chose to be part of.
With his pilot, his team, its planes and its infrastructure, FLV can participate in any aeronautical event (national, international, on all the spots of the planet.) It can also answer all your specific requests: participation in your internal events, presentations of acrobatics, private flights, etc.
