You could use an old fashion road map like the one from Michelin,Polleke_NL wrote:Like many others, I will be travelling to Hyeres and Istres in June, and I would like to also spot as many wrecks relics along the way if possible.
I do have the EMOOS but it does not have a map with the locations of all aircraft/remains so th eonly way to find out what is available along the route would be to key in all locations into Google Earth, which is a hell of a thing to do.
To easify things: does anyone have a graphical overview available of what wrecks and relics are available at what location in France so I can easily plan my route?
Already checked the Euro Demobbed site but unfortunattely France doesn't function there...

Not exactly the place for advertisements, but this book (at least the previous edition) only covers larger collections but not the individual aircrafts owned by private persons or companies, or gateguards, so it does not give me a complete picture on what to look for..., but thanks for the suggestion anyway.. (stiff price by the way.., UKP 28,-- !)Glidepath wrote:tip: do as i did:

goed dat je dat voorbehoud van de voorgaande edities maakt, want IN DEZE EDITIE is dat iig anders. Die individuele "monuments", gateguards etc. staan er wel degelijk in! (staat trouwens ook zo in de beschrijving op de AirBritain-site.... ). Ook de (PPR-) private owned spullen. precies wat je wilt...?only covers larger collections but not the individual aircrafts owned by private persons or companies, or gateguards, so it does not give me a complete picture on what to look for.
