Les Chevaliers du Ciel
Not sure if anyone has seen this, but a great bit of footage that everyone should enjoy watching...

Pretty.
What's with the missing rear canopy on the T-bird at 2:36?

Ahhh ... CBA to watch films, but assume that's a Navigator Dispensing device? 
Dan Junior wanted to watch this a second time as he had seen it on an Air France flight and being a bit of an underachiever as far as languages go (especially French) hadn't understood all that was going on. So I acquired a copy on my next trip to Shanghai.
I suspect it may have not been a fully kosher copy by the fact that it cost about 50p, but also for the hilarious subtitles which had obviously been written by a Chinese using Google translate. For a start, they kept referring to the Mirage as the "Image" and they got funnier and funnier until finally I gave up when "Look out behind you!" translated as "Alert - he is in your behind!"

Crap storyline - but great flying sequences.
Especially the Mirage (or was it a Rafaele) hiding underneath the Airbus.
Worth a watch just for the lack of CGI - she's all real jets there boys.
Tom Cruise - eat your `airsick have to resort to backscreen projection' heart out.

I was about to say the same thing, Wander. 
Edit: it seems we can watch the clip at ImPlaneCrazy's original post, but not on a "mobile device." We cannot see the full movie in France - presumably we could with the use of a UK IP address. I've got a thing for that somewhere.

But who can remember the original TV Series 
The Aeronauts ... a French children's TV series, also screened in the UK, (1967 to 1970) about two fighter jet pilots, Michel Tanguy and Ernest Laverdure, and their adventures. It was based on a comic book series by Jean-Michel Charlier and Albert Uderzo titled Tanguy et Laverdure.
The original French title was Les chevaliers du ciel ("The Knights of the Sky").

Unable to watch youtube in France
Not sure if this will work or not, but if you have google chrome there is an add on called "Zen Mate" that makes your computer "think" it is in the UK. Worked for me whilst I was in Afghanistan last Christmas (allowed me to watch BBC iPlayer).

Thanks everyone for the advice about VPNs et al. I've just downloaded Zen Mate to my laptop (they're apparently working on an iPad version) and it is superb. Now I can even watch iPlayer. Thank you, golamv.
