Well worth the trip. Could not have wished for better weather. It must have been very warm but a nice breeze and low humidity made for a sweat free day and saturated blue sky.
Thanks

Super set from what looks like a great airshow, and a lovely venue too.
That Paris is a quirky little thing, looks to have quite a few seats?

Rafale, Paris and Flamant topsides are superb.

Thanks for your kind comments.
The Paris was meant to have been a 2 seat trainer for the French Armed Forces but it lost out to the Fouga Magister. A four seat version was then built and some 50 were sold to the French Air Force and Navy as a liaison aircraft and training. The last one retired from military service in 1997.
