EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Breguet-Dornier Alpha Jet 54, call sign F-TERD, of the Patrouille de France, parked at Sollingen Air Base in 1981. The Alpha Jet is a twin-engine, multi-role combat and advanced jet trainer aircraft, manufactured by the French companies Breguet and Dornier. The Alpha Jet was introduced in the late 1970s and became the primary trainer for various European air forces, including the French Air Force's Patrouille de France, their prestigious aerobatics team. In this image, the Alpha Jet is adorned with the distinctive markings of the French Ministry of Transport, represented by the Ministere des Transports logo on the fuselage. The aircraft's serial number, 32, is also visible, along with the call sign F-TERD. The Alpha Jet's sleek design and vibrant colors contrast beautifully against the backdrop of the air base. The Alpha Jet's visit to Sollingen Air Base in 1981 was likely part of an international aviation event or a training exercise. The presence of a Canadian CL-215, registration CF-YWO, in the background suggests a multinational gathering. The CL-215 is a Canadian-built water bomber, operated by various firefighting agencies worldwide. The Canadian flag on the CL-215's tail fin further emphasizes the international nature of this aviation event. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of aviation and the collaborative efforts between various countries in the development and operation of advanced military and civilian aircraft. The Alpha Jet and the CL-215, parked side by side, represent the diversity and versatility of aeronautical transportation and the transport industry.
