French Navy Lynx - Air 2 Air
French Navy Lynx - Air 2 Air
Hi,
Last friday, officialy the French Navy Lynx were phase out, and the 34F (squadron 34) shut down.
To celebrate this event, two Lynx were paint with a special scheme. In fact it was decided to paint aircraft with previous schemes. A nice smart idea.
Lucky enough, just few weeks before the withdrawal I was able to join an amazing photo flight over the ocean close to the french Brittany coasts.
The first paint scheme from 1978
The second paint scheme from 1982 to early nineties
The current scheme
Sometime we were flying high
Sometimes lower...

It’s not what you look at that matters. It’s what you see.

Great pics. I love the retro schemes.
Sadly, another stalwart that is slowly disappearing.
