I actually read the French, the only thing it says about Ireland (or "Irland" in French) is that they got Magisters in 1976, and they were used in the Silver Swallows team.

Catch-22 says they have a right to do anything we can't stop them from doing.
French Fouga's had a dayglo red nose similar to our Fouga's. There is a picture of a French Navy (Marine) Fouga halfway down this page that also has a dayglo nose.
Thanks frank but your dayglo pic is fully covering the nose, yet in my pic the dayglo only covers the area covered by the IAC fouga's and the rest left to maybe be painted black for the gun ports. the IAC Fouga dayglo is the same as the pic in which i started the thread. But then again the Gun ports are located just below the Black area on the IAC Fouga's. Maybe the black is there as an aid for the pilot so the Dayglo wont affect him...:-patriot:
