Thanks once more Ludo for presenting us with such great Mirages Mods in general. It's very much appreciated I've been and still am a Mirage III lover since the early 70th's. Of course, i also love the Mirage F-1 The Mirage IIIC is one of those jets that looks like it’s going Mach 2 even when it’s parked. The picture shows Elie Buge in a Mirage III CZ Elie Buge decided to join the French Air Force. In the spring of 1941, he set off for Châteauroux, which was then in the Free Zone, where he stayed for several months before embarking on a series of experiences abroad. He spent time in French-speaking North Africa (Morocco and Algeria) and then in the USA in 1943, where he obtained his fighter pilot’s license. From there, Elie Buge went to England, where he was assigned to the 145th Wing of the Royal Air Force. At the end of World War II, he transferred from his squadron based in Germany to the second fighter squadron in Dijon.
