Mirage 1V, a French airforce,pièce de résistance.
Just thought, I would share a few of this beautiful Jet, taken in 2004 through 05 as time was running out, on this big beast!
Hope you enjoy them as I do

One of my favourite "avions classiques". Saw a few back in the 80s attacking RAF airfields on exercises and a couple in museums. Great reminders of the past. Thanks.

Never managed to see one, they did a few approaches at Lossiemouth over the years but i was never lucky enough to be there at the time.
You lucky man.Thanks for a great start to the day.
Cheers.

Fantastic post and loads of detail.
I think it definitely wins the prize for the longest bespoke boarding ladder

The ladders in shot #6 give perspective. She is enormous! France's Vulcan.

Tres bon Michel. Never had the opportunity to see one in flight which is a big regret - only on static display @ RIAT.

Saw one arrive for Fairford show. If killing machines could be described as beautiful, then this one is IT!!.
Re: Mirage 1V, a French airforce,pièce de résistance.
Fantastic plane and a great resume there
Can remeber the first time I saw them down at Bordeaux when I arrived there in 1980 - taxied out after I had landed and took off - what a noise and been a fan ever since
Thanks for posting these
