An AF retro-jet? Sounds good . I take it it would be in the livery that was decommissioned in the late 70's?

An Air France retrojet ?? OMG that would be a first in Air France history to make a special colorscheme .. apart from a little sticker for the 1998 football worldcup ..

Any idea about the date of the flight from TLS to CDG ?

[Chalut31]

No date for the moment but ferry flight in the next days with a good weather !
Ceremony on November 14 with the old DC3
More informations later...

Sounds to be the one decommissioned from 1976 ownwards. The shark tail introduced by the sevenOh and the Caravelle... Provided details are preserved with the correct postionning, I can't wait to see how it will look on the 320.

None.. the only "special" scheme they did, was a little sticker on the forward part of the fuselage for the 1998 World Football cup in France.

That's why it is a premiere for the Airline.
