Magazine. “Le Fana de l’Aviation” n°662
For this first issue of the year, featuring the F-15 on the front cover, the editorial team at “Le Fana” honors aircraft from the Dassault sphere in surprising and varied circumstances.
For this first issue of 2025, the monthly’s editorial team has opted to present the F-15 Streak Eagle (cover), which collected climb speed records in January and February 1975 – with testimonials from pilots and other mechanics.
Another context, that of the arrival of the Mirage F1 on display at the Musée de l’Air et de l’Espace, with its entire history from the time it left Dassault’s production facilities to its arrival at Le Bourget. Another tour, this time exclusively aerial, with an on-board experience featuring a Dassault Rafale and a Spitfire, as many spectators were able to see last summer during the many celebrations marking the 80th anniversary of the Normandy Landings.
Also featured in this January issue, a zoom on the CAO 30, a seaplane from the 1930s, another on the role of the Amiot 350 in combat during the 1940 defeat, the half-century of the Phantom II in Turkey, a history lesson on Junkers Jumo engines, and a review of the latest Warbirds. Not forgetting the models of the month, books recommended by the editorial team and all the other usual features.
