| Description |
English: The only examples of their types in the UK, it was good to find Elvington’s two Mirages parked next to each other and nicely photographable. Well done to whoever was in charge of the layout!!
The airfield has an important connection with France as it was the only airfield in the UK to be used by Free French forces during WW2. ‘346 ‘Guyenne’ and 347 ‘Tunisie’ Squadrons were based here from June 1944 till October 1945 and flew Handley Page Halifax bombers as part of the Allied bombing campaign against Germany. In recognition of this, the museum has been gifted the two Mirages, with the Mirage IV being the only example of its type outside of France. Yorkshire Air Museum, Elvington, North Yorkshire, UK. 1st September 2020 |
