I had a change to visit with one of my Australian mates several museums in Paris. One museum that I had never visited before is the musee de l’air.
Some great displays of ww2, Cold War and modern aircraft and helicopters. Enjoy the pics guys
The best display by far was for ww2 was the Régiment de Chasse Normandie-Niémen, flying Yak3,5 and 9. The squadron, which served on the Eastern Front of the European theatre of World War II with the 1st Air Army, is notable as one of only three units from Western Allied countries to see combat on the Eastern Front during the war and was the only Western Allied unit which fought with Soviet forces until the end of the war in Europe.

Ww2 Hall
A nice number of aircraft in the hall the majority serving in the French armee d’Air or flown by French pilots. Only the one German aircraft there, would loved to have seen a French bomber but not to be….
Cold War beauties
Lots of Cold War French, German, Warpac and Swedish aircraft on display
