Chateaudun - anything to see from the outside?

Post by BriLlo »

Hi all
I'll be driving back from Toulouse next week and night stopping in Orleans. I wondered whether it's worth a detour to the FAF storage base?
Any hints gratefully received.

Many thanks
BriLlo

Yes it is brilliant lots and lots of airframes. Unfortunately the Gendarmerie pulled me in and made me wipe my memory card.

Thanks Tankbuster, so OK to look, but keep your camera out of sight : )

Yep, the Gendarmerie were actually very nice but rules is rules. You do need to do a full circuit to see everything but the road along the bottom is Transall/Nord 262 heaven

Please tell me that you are aware of recovery software which will recover all images from a memory wipe (usually free with Sandisk memory cards)!? :shock:

I'm aware but my brain was a bit slow at the time and I used the card at La Ferte Alais over the next two days. Hindsight is wonderful because I had two cameras in the car and should have wiped the other one which had little on it.
