From http://hipparchia-moonlighting.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html:
“But a Francophonic friend generously donated a few minutes to co-googling, in which we discovered that the Université de Paris X Nanterre has sites at Ville d’Avray and Saint-Cloud, and the IUT de Ville d’Avray, 1 chemin Desvallières, 92410 Ville d’Avray, France) has an Aeronautiques program and publishes research of the applied physics variety. Call me fanciful, but I’m thinking that aeronautiques = aeronautics. Seems like a reasonable spot for a fighter jet to come to rest.”

A VFW? In my home town, the VFW had a Sabre Jet on the front lawn. What’s the big deal?

You might be able to find a little (but only a little!) information about what you are talking about here: http://googlesightseeing.com/2007/07/18/it-must-be-a-mirage/

That is a Mirage fighter jet, that was in commission between 1978 and 2001. It is now decommissioned. If you want a .jpg of it, let me know. It was manufactured by the French company: Dassault. Here is a good photo of that plane in the air.

Hey, you need some way to get into work when the jag is in the shop.

Obviously, it is parked in the shade to keep the interior cool.

Hello,
Le blog est adorable et je cherche à le rajouter dans un flux RSS pour suivre des nouveaux articles.
Visiblement je ne vois pas le flux rss du blog ou alors je suis mauvais ce qui est possible également…
