Study of voluntary and involuntary spins on the Fouga Magister at the end of the 60s. The aim was primarily educational, so that new pilots could learn the procedures for regaining control of the aircraft. © Images défense

Avec la fin du KC135 dans Armée de l'Air et de l'Espace que de souvenirs 😱 dont le transit à l'époque des Jag bien collés dessous en direction de l'Afrique, 🇪🇦 ayant refusé le survol. (Années 80). Et le retour quand il nous appelait travers ZRG pour qu'on récupère le 4/11😂(crédit Perceval fb)

I’ve published seven books across three genres, memoirs told in a series of funny stories in a raw and gritty style, dark comedy thrillers and a survival story. #Free on #KindleUnlimited Why not take a look 👀 amazon.co.uk/stores/author/…

"A superb book" says the blurb - and it's not wrong! Robert Lyman 🇺🇦 's "A War of Empires" must surely be essential reading for anyone with an interest in military history Osprey Publishing #History #BooksWorthReading

To cheer you today, I have enhanced this autochrome of motley revellers at the Joan of Arc festival in Compiègne, France. It was taken 94 years ago by Jules Gervais Courtellemont and is original colour (not colourised).

😱 Major control issues after landing! As I mentioned in my book 📚, sometimes the hardest part of Papua flying isn’t the take-off or landing but manoeuvring the aircraft on the ground ⛰️🌴 Watch as I have to balance braking and reverse thrust to stop us sliding into the ditch 😳
