Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Mystere IV in tourist shop Bayeux

Post by Rene Klok »

This afternoon I noticed this cockpit section of a Mystere IV in a tourist shop in Bayeux (Normandy, France). A picture inside shows a Mystere with code 8-NJ. The cockpit was restored in 2012 by students from a technical school at the premises of Aero Carpiquet in Dinan (Normandy).
Does anyone know which a/c it actually is (was)?

Well, If it's Carpiquet, it is not Dinan. :wink:

Dinan (LFEB) is a small air place, located aroud 25km South of St Malo, in Bretagne.

Carpiquet(LFRK) is Caen airport, located 150km north-east of the first one, in Normandy.

Very true. I found a French article about the restauration and made a translation misake. The technical school students that performed the restauration came from Dinan.
