Joining your answers, I have one result: THE Slovak Mig-29 participating to the 14th july flypast...

I'll try to check that.

Hi all,

A formation composed with an Adla Mirage 2000 and an unknowm Mig-29 overflew Creil today at around 1230 hrs.

Anyone for the nationality and reason?

Hi all, As I wrote in the "Disbandment of EC1/30 Colmar" topic, the Defence White Book gives some elements but not all, the Adla will severely restructurate, and we are waiting for the publication of the airbases closure... To answer your question, the "Gascogne" should be the second Rafale squadron...

Hi all,

The future Rafale squadrons, following the 1/7 "Provence" will be:

- Gascogne
- Normandie-Niemen
- Alsace
- Lorraine
- Lafayette
- Cigognes
- Ile de France

The "Gascogne" will be the first Rafale squadron for nuclear dissuasion.


Regards,

One AMI and one AME EF-2000, one slovak Mig-29, one hungarian Gripen and one rumanian Mig-21 will participate to the "défilé du 14 Juillet".

My favourite is the second one (Carabinieri AB-412).

Is this Adla Fennec (WB) the only one to participate to Squalo 08?

The Esterel aircraft are already used by the President for his different trips, the A-340s for long range ones; but he needs his personal Air Force One like the American president... The problem is that our military transport fleet is getting worse and worse with (very) ageing Transall, fighters spa...
