Wheni I was very young, early seventies, I remeber my daddy joking about a TV serial that made is appearance on Italian television, and I was amazed by these guys riding in a Mirage, and I remember that one had a very funny name “La Verdure” that in italian literally means “the vegetable”, so now I found out that I was created also by Uderzo, the Asterix creator, and I found out a very interesting site http://tanguy.aeroplanete.net/

Yes,I remember the programme,it was on during the long summer break.If I remember correctly,wasn’t there a T-33,painted black,that acted as the “bandit” to the heroes Mirage 3’s? I also still have the Aeronauts Annual from 1973.
Apparently there was another series in the eighties and there’s a new movie planned for next year in which they fly Mirage 2000’s !
