Recollections: Maybe my first flight in a French airplane? This was a cargo conversion project, smoke penetration and detection. My only memory of the flight was thinking how unusual and foreign the cockpit seemed to me (remember, I was just a few years out of the military). Since then I’ve seen other French-designed aircraft and come to recognize the beauty and consistency of the design.
