french air force escort
Just heard this evening 3/nov/ 5 pm'ish a BA 737 flying into toulouse had a friendly escort by two french airforce jets!
French atc didn't believe it was a genuine Ba flight even though they were operating on the speedbird callsign!
Can anybody elaborate on this?

Probably just another 'play at fighter pilots' practice for the L'Armee de Froggies - short of targets again
- reckon it was a 'FRANCHise' then Noddy?

Thats nice of our chums across the channel, they normally wait for the aircraft requiring an intercept to be in someone elses airspace and become someone elses problem! Would have to be a BA flight though wouldnt it.........
