Plane on a Stick

We (I) love a plane on a stick. This is a Dassault Mirage IIIB two seater training jet previously of the French Air Force, now a roundabout decoration in Saint-Amand-Montrond. Susan photographed it last year on our way to Italy.




There are a number of planes on sticks near Tours, but they are all commercial propeller craft. The most notable is also on a roundabout: near the Tours Airport is a Beechcraft 99 that was once flown to Miami and back. It's not as exciting as a jet capable of over twice the speed of sound, though.
