The Patrouille de France initially flew Thunderjets. The French air force restored and painted this aircraft for the team's 50th anniversary in 2003. It is a former Portuguese machine, 5216 (US serial 51-10838), however. This photo is copyright © Peter de Jong, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
