3 days in Delta Country (large post)
Hello all
In February I spend 5 days in the Northern part of France. Coincidentally (If you can call it that way ) my holiday place was situated between Saint-Dizier and Nancy so I used 3 days to catch some of those nice French aircraft.
Here are some pics I took over those 3 days:

Thanks for those nice comments guys!
I forgot to add these shots. I made a little detour to Étain-Rouvres to photograph the gate guards when I was on my way to my holiday stay.
