They never miss an airshow, the men and women of the Gendarmerie.

An airshow at Bordeaux provided an opportunity to see the aircraft of the CAEA collection. Its Broussard is seen parked under the starboard tailboom of its Noratlas, with open clamshell doors.

The Breguet 14 was pretty fast and one of the best reconnaissance bombers of the Great War. After the war it went on to play an important role as a mailplane, especially with Lignes Aériennes Latécoère. This machine, first flown in 2003, has a nicely concealed modern Lycoming engine and the new designation Breguet 14P, which I'd say relieves it from being a replica.

Aero Subaru turned into Aero Samurai!

With tail marking celebrating 25 years of Belgian military service for the A109. I remember that a huge corruption scandal followed the purchase. It is certainly a beautiful helicopter, though hardly the werewolf painted on this display machine.

The CAEA aircraft collection includes this Mirage 5, which was originally ordered by Israel, and a Mirage F.1 which was never delivered to Iraq.

Actually No 370, this Magister was to be delivered to Cameroon after its French service career, but this did not go ahead.
