Rafale solo display
















             “A presentation should not
             exceed five or six minutes and

             should be in a very limited volume
             of sky and close to the ground.
             It is necessary that the aircraft
             displays its power and its ability

             to manoeuvre with precise flight
             controls.” Eric Gérard
