Log France july 2016 Chateaudun and Romorantin

Post by Flyingdutchman »

Hello all,

During my holiday I visited some FAF airfields here a log of my notes:

Romorantin 26-7-2016
I was there at 21:00u, still some flying going on. Was able te spot a 'new' Mirage F1 preserved. Due to the current situation and patrols along the fence I didn't take a picture of the Mirage

Preserved:
Mirage F1CR 656 / 112-CS ex-stored Chateaudun , position 47°19'19.05"N, 1°41'2.67"O
Mirage F1 desert camo serial read as 22 but not sure. This one looked brand new with a fresh paint. Same here that I couldn't stop of look with binoucular due to military activity
Mirage 3 331

Flying:
VR DG505 (Glider)
198 code XE Mousquetaire D140
