Re: French W&R Normadie
Are the 3 Fougas replaced for plastic ones and if so, since when?

Remplacement des Fouga
Après une dépose spectaculaire, les trois Fouga, figures de proue du musée de l’Air et de l’Espace, ont été remplacés par trois modèles flambant neufs. A la fin du mois de mai 2013, ils ont retrouvé leur emplacement initial : l’entrée du musée, nez pointés vers le ciel du Bourget. Après une expertise approfondie, il s’est avéré que l’état de corrosion des anciens appareils était très avancé, à tel point que le projet de restauration a été remis en question.
Found this on the website of the museum. Seems like it happened May 2013.

Oké thanks.
Luckily I saw them years ago (1995/99/2012).
