Just spotted over Dover: an Air France FH-227 that clearly missed the memo about retiring in the ’90s. Rumor has it she took a wrong turn over Le Bourget in 1973 and has been too proud to ask for directions ever since. ✈️🇫🇷

An Air France Fairchild FH-227 turboprop aircraft flies over Dover Harbour in England. The aircraft features the modern Air France livery, with a white fuselage, dark blue cheatline, and the airline’s blue, white, and red tail stripes. Below, Dover Harbour’s distinctive breakwaters, ferry terminals, and the turquoise waters of the English Channel are visible, with the iconic white cliffs in the background under a partly cloudy sky.
