JPO Bordeaux Mérignac
Forum rules
This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum. Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.). Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so. |

JPO Bordeaux Mérignac
Hi all,
There was a small JPO at Mérignac this weekend. Here some shots from yesterday. Hope you like them.
Some photos of the CAEA planes that were on display outside. Too bad that they kept the Iraqi Mirage F1BQ inside.

Re: JPO Bordeaux Mérignac
Yes, it is. And also a nice "meant to be Iraqi" Mirage F.1 as well!

Re: JPO Bordeaux Mérignac
Hi Stephan and Melchior, it's indeed one of the Cameroon AF Magisters that was never delivered. There used to be five of them at Mérignac. They were parked at the IMA (Ingénierie et Maintenance Aéronautique), next to the Air Inter plane and later they were in between the stored planes across from the IMA. If I remember correctly, the "320" in one of the pictures is also an "ex-Cameroon" Magister. And as Patrick said, the "Iraqi F1BQ" was never delivered either.
