Bonjour
Verry happy to receive news from the RAF. I remember almost everything except the bill....so I cannot reply regarding payment. May be it is not too late.... Did you remember the amount ?
Yes photo of the Phantom are somewhere in my house but it could take some time to find them...
Regarding Mrs Thatcher'son, I remember the story too and I have only one picture of the event. I also remember the word of one english friend about this :
he told me in french " Jacques, ce n'est pas ce que vous avez fait de mieux" may be some sort of british humor. I prefer you take the responsability to translate in good english.
Recovery of the son costs me one wheel of the Dornier Skyservant. Pilot ( Mr Fourtiq) landed in a very rough place. I confirm I never charged Mrs Thatcher for the wheel.
( it is added mentally to the long list : Jeanne d'Arc, Trafalgar, Aboukir, Waterloo, Fachoda etc...)
