Hello all, and more particularly to those on the other side of the
Channel (if my memory is good),

I once saw (here ?) a series of pictures of a French military cargo
which had been "tagged" with a Navy anchor. Probably a C-130 Hercules,
may be a Transall C 16O (odds 2 against 1). And taken from a taxiing
airliner, somewhere in the UK...

If I'm right, would the original poster be kind to repost them ?
Thanks in advance,

Hi, it was me and it was taken at Bristol Airport. It was a C130
carrying Foreign Legion troops who were off on exercises in Wales - all
I have to do now is find it!

I shall post it as soon as it turns up. I've had several different
computers since that time and I think I was flying to Prague, and I was
sitting in an Airbus A319 awaiting take off when I saw it.

You have a good memory!

Well, here we are. I was flying to Prague and it was 19 March 2006.

I hope that this helps. I do apologise for the very poor quality of the
pictures. As well us moving on from computer to computer, I've also
moved on by four or five cameras since then!

Regards,
