Orléans-Bricy, France

The French Air Force put on a wonderful display of transport aircraft used across post-war decades.

In the distance are the twin-engined Transall C-160 and Lockheed Hercules, whilst nearer the camera are the Douglas C-47, the Airbus A400M and the Nord Noratlas. Out of shot to the left was a Junkers Ju52.

It was my first sighting of the A400M, which is still at the flight testing stage.
