That type of bravado would get you grounded these days. I will however admit to being in a flight that entered Iraqi airspace playing Queen’s “We Will Rock You” over an open UHF channel.

The French Government should buy the whole collection and then donate it to the British War Museum.

The British had been informed the Germans held daily parades down the Champs-Elysees and he was asked to strafe the parade.

If people like this were running the war in Afghanistan, it would have been won years ago.

That’s one huge flag draped straegically over the Arc de Triomphe and one good looking pilot who looks like he has what it takes.

"... After dropping a huge French flag on top of the Arc de Triomphe, the British pilot headed towards the Gestapo headquarters which he raked with 20mm shells... The attack sent the German SS troops running for their lives, to the delight of Parisians."

And every once in awhile, only just so often, war is a hell of a lot of fun.

There is no CIC this side of the former iron curtain who would permit such a mission THESE days. Fly down the boulevard at BR window height, and then strafe enemy headquarters? Never! The politicians who pass for leaders these days are far too PC to allow our enemy to be EMBARASSED!

IMHO, that is the very definition of a “fun run”: “bumping” your allies and “busting” your mutual enemies...

Nicely done!
