Paris Air Show 06/06/1977

Post by RobertoCFC05 » Thu Dec 29, 2022 9:26 pm

Good evening all

Back in the day when I was a lad, I visited the Paris Air Show with some friends, and one item that has eluded me, and I am sure others for a number of years is a Mirage F1CG that was in the static, has anyone ever been able to put an ID on this frame, I see 140 has been mentioned but nothng concrete.

I would appreciate it if someone can finally put this to bed.

Many thanks
Kind regards and Happy New Year to all
Roberto

My photos, nose and tail angles in the static, seem to show it was unmarked, except for type.

I checked through SEAR & BAR/BARG but all say the same,

"unmarked Mirage F1CG Greek Air Force"

Couldn't find any later reports that would help.

I think most of us who went that year have this as a need!
