is an AUSTRIAN Aviation Company

with a Maintenance Center at MEIDL AIRPORT (LHFM) in Hungary.

Rare Bird Aviation has offices and workshops at three locations in Austria & Hungary, and the main base for Aircraft Maintenance, Restoration and Flight Operation is our facility at Meidl Airport. It includes three large maintenance hangars, several workshops for metal, wood, engine, avionic and painting, office and storage hangars – in total about 3.500 m² / 38.000 ft².

Two nice and obstacle free runways, 1100 m Grass and 1000 m Asphalt, are located just in front of our building.

Since 30+ years we are enjoying a worldwide network of friends, aviation companies and museums, in the USA, England, Europe and other continents. This ranges from close ties with pilots and engineers, sharing their knowledge and experience, to operational & technical cooperation for parts production, aircraft restoration and flight operation.

MEIDL Airport is a new airfield, built in 1997 near Sopron, Hungary, located just a few miles south of the Austrian border and about one hour drive by car from Vienna. The airfield is surrounded by the Austrian Alps to the west, Lake Neusiedl to the north and the romantic Hungarian Puzta to the south-east.

There we have established our main workshops and flight operation, in cooperation with our Austrian sister company 3G CLASSIC AVIATION, which is specialized on Boeing Stearman airplanes. For more details see www.stearman.at
