Vayres, Bordeaux-Beauséjour, Latresne, Bordeaux/Mérignac & Gatwick – Saturday 18th May 2019 (James Nason)

Hi all,

The third and last day of the Tiger Meet tour was to see us take in preserved items in and around Bordeaux. There was a problem for some of our group in not being able to access the Conservatoire de l’Air et de l’Espace d’Aquitaine and so that will be reported separately by Grant Robinson.

The request is for confirmation of the seemingly unmarked Aerospatiale AS.350 Ecureuil at the Latresne facility, picture below….
