EDITORIAL
This month’s issue of MAR is smaller than usual - partially because of various editorial staff holidays, partially because of very few reports from the USA (although quite a lot of you are heading there in September and October) and partially because August is always a quiet month at airfields throughout Europe, again because of holidays. Hopefully, next month will see a marked improvement in coverage and reports!
This issue will have the 2014 magazine renewals slip inside - see yellow slip - and, as stated last month, the rates for 2014 are remaining the same as for 2013. Perhaps when Royal Mail announce their new postal rates next April I will wish I had made allowance for the increases they are bound to make to give their privatisation prospects more more of a pleasing glow for investors.
For those readers only taking the digital subscription you will find a PDF of the subscription form when you log into the site.

472 BRITISH REVIEW A very quite month this August due to the annual summer holidays, many of the bases were closed for most of the month, so I will catch up with a few of the bases residents next month. During September 2013 it was officially announced that 809NAS will be reformed as the first Fleet Air Arm Squadron to operate the F-35B Lightning II and should be based at Marham where the aircraft will operate with 617 Sqn. 809NAS was last disbanded on 17th December 1982 following the end of the Falklands War......

BULGARIA Nessebar – (8.13) MiG-21bis 277 is plinth-mounted next to a Lukoil petrol station somewhere in the area. It is in a false grey colour scheme.

FRANCE (59) Lille/Lesquin - (8.13) Piper L-4J (44-80087)/G-BDEZ is now based here, having moved across from Croft, Lincolnshire after a change of owner. (69) Lyon/Corbas - (8.13) The Espaces Aéro Lyon-Corbas has taken delivery of Etendard IVM 34 from Cuers. This may well replace 36 which is now sitting dismantled outside, in poor condition.A confirmed departure is MS.505 (602)/F-AZTB which was sold, fate unknown. (84) Orange – (8.13) Mirage IIIC 43 (ex Ville d’Avray) is confirmed as the most recent new exhibit at the Musée Aéronautique d’Orange. (76) Rouen/Vallée de Seine - (8.13) The following were noted on the “old” side in mid August. 154/315-SM MH 1521 F-GKRO (PB+158) SO1221 Djinn F-BIEV (258)/BZ 54 Morane MS.317 Navy c/s, not ex mil F-BBZR 13 Morane MS.733 red c/s F-BASJ (633)/BA+VB Morane MS.505 German desert c/s F-BAVB 83 Morane MS.733 yellow c/s F-AZKS 128/52S Morane MS.733 silver c/s F-BMMY In addition, a Vautour IIN without a tail was seen in one of the hangars on the main part of the airport. (21) Savigny-les-Beaune – David Moore has provided a photo of the plate behind the rudder of the preserved TS-11 at the Musée du Château. It reads H0323, lending further evidence to this aircraft indeed being 323. 323 is commonly said to have been WO on 30 January 1979. However, this incident involved a hangar collapse at Radom in which 24 aircraft were lost from service. It must be entirely possible that some actually survived to serve in other capacities, as instructional airframes or the like. (26) Saint Rambert d’Albon - (8.13) A large number of warbirds/relics can be found here.
