Okay, they can fly okay. But this reminds me.

Type 'french military victories' (minus the inverted commas) into Google and hit 'I'm feeling lucky'. :}

Gainesy 23rd Oct 2009 10:00

Vid wouldn't load. Excellent.

Double Zero 23rd Oct 2009 10:01

Well,

One victory they had was to observe the Fairey Delta 2 rather closely, hey presto le Mirage qui exported + !
