We will need an active campaign to get les frogs to contribute to pprune.

Sorry, I meant our exhalted allies.

Read a classificed report by an RN EO to the Jean d'Arc where he commented on the capacity and the quality of her cellar.

We shall need to incorporate a major modifications to the QEs as they will need a much enlarged cellar to meet the French expectation of wine at lunch as well as at dinner.

Is it too late to change the spec. from fitting catapults to longbows? :E

So the options are -

(1) RAF Manned fast jets - The Crabs walking around manking about sea time and "hotel Facilities" to anyone who'll listen, and in the case of Aircrew - have a tendency towards arrogance

or

(2) French Aeronavale - Cant speak a word of English, Hate brit scran, stink of garlic, and have a tendency towards arrogance.


... It's a tough call :E

or option 3 ..... scrap the carriers.

Maybe not such a tough call ......

OK, FAF not FN, but they were charming when they made a week long visit to a secret mushroom farm in Lincolnshire. The only off-putting thing was the greeting every morning.

They shook hands with everyone every day.

No kissing, mind you the copilot was worth kissing :)
