How on Earth did they see where they were going?
1961 A10SR, spent a fortune at SRM
1961 A7SS, finally the right green
2011 1937 Empire Star, twin port, high pipes, 2023 off to pastures new.
2022 Gone to the dark side and bought a 1981 Honda Benly, electric leg for my old age! done 450 miles!
2023. 1972 Honda CL350 added. Another electric leg bike with a bit more oomf

French aviation at its best . How does a country produce that bag of nuts and bolts yet within a few yrs designs so not bad quality figher planes the equal of the !09 ? Of course it was was a shame that the majority of there pilots didn't have the balls to fly 'em but that was another story
