foufure · Post by **foufure** » 25 Mar 2008, 10:00

Hello,

I'm installing some AI French Air Force aircraft.

I've Mirage 2000C-B-D-N, C-130H & C-130H-30, C-160, C-135FR with flight plan.

I also have some CN-235 from Creil and Antille, but I'don't find any FlightPlan for these. Can anyone have flightplan for these acft ?

I'm also seeking repaint for AI Tucano in French Air Force colors.

Thanks for everybody who can help me.

PS. Sorry for my bad english.. I'm french speeker.

Hi foufure,

Please do not say sorry for your English, it is far better than my French is.

So does anybody have private flight plans for the French CN-235s that they would like to share?

Yes i've take a look on this web site, but there is no flight plan for AI CN-235 there.

I only find some flight plan for support C-130, C-160 and C-135FR wit AI Mirage 2000 Flight plan.

Didn't realise that the French flew these planes. As it wasn't included in Christian Muenier's French AF package I didn't look any further. The only FPs I have for this aircraft are for the Spanish AF, Turkish AF, Turkish Navy, and Turkish Coast Guard.

Although wikipedia is not the most reliable source you may have a look here for CN-235 operators:

I've found Wikipedia to be THE MOST reliable source of base info on military aviation matters. OK Ive found in the past that some of their entries have now gone out of date, but the same can be said about parts of scramble if you're not a member. Wikipedia also list squadron callsigns some of the time too. Which is very helpful for the smaller packages.

I partially agree with you. But I also had some negative experiences in the past. Thats why - IF possible - I double check infos from there.

I, too, have all Graham King's French Airforce repaints for the AiVER Casa 235 (which is a nice little model, if any one out there hasn't found it yet!) looking for flightplans to fly, so if anyone comes across some a "heads up" would be appreciated!

As I saw some more on a.net - what happened to these:

EDIT:
Scramble says 35-25 is still active but could not find the other serial numbers.
