On the way to Switzerland for the WEF we spent a few hours at Reims
the weather was nice and the flying was good.
Reims is still a good place to visit as long as it last, and that will probably be June this year.
Thanks for looking.
Regards Ronald.

Forum rules
This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum. Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.). Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so. |

Good to read that the F-1s are still flying good! How many different ones did you catch while you were there, Roland?

Was indeed a nice place to visit, but I must remember to bring gloves....

The Mirages F1 are supposed to move to Mont de Marsan in April 2011, and are due to be withdrawn for use in 2014. The recce tasks will be performed by Rafales fitted with the "Pod de reco NG"
