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
