Finally, something from the British side of the Channel!

“during the investigations, many notes with values were found. Between them:”CAIXA-AZARIAS-MUSEU-SAAB” (bank, name of a lawyer, museum, Saab)”

G`day gents
I just sent off an email to Dassault requesting archival information and pictures of the Avon-powered Mirage III!
For historical stuff, try this man at PR : [email]luc.berger@dassault-aviation.com[/email] However, i know Dassault archives, good luck to you (no specific archivist…).
Edit : you did, sry. 1very nice guy, isn’t he?
If you are interested, he is co-author of a series of two remarkable books : Claude Carlier & Luc Berger ; Dassault 1945-1995 50 and d’aventures aéronautiques. editions du Chêne. They speak about Australia pp 82-83.
Both versions were compared in 1961. In order to reach Atar thrust at Mach 2, RR had to modify the Avon (exhaust) and lost its advantage in fuel consumption. Trial results showed the Atar powered version to be better.
µpresently on MBDA website it is 3 to 6 times the NEZ of present MRAAMS.
