SILENCE !.... and... ACTION !!
THE LAST OF THE MANY ! .... TAKE 1 !
Indeed, on June 20, 2007, the world's last military operational Fouga, was put in the spotlights by the Belgian television and radio in preparation of various broadcasts.
The presentation "Au
quotidien" initiated by the 1st Belgian (french speaking) television
channel (RTBF) is programmed on Thursday, June 28, 2007 at 18.45' hrs.
It is under the crosier of an authentic Belgian journalistic road-racer, M.
André URBAIN, that this serie was conceived.
It was a great privilege that SBAP, not only has been given the opportunity to witness the preparations, but also has been participating dynamically by giving some interviews regarding the Fouga Magister and their oncoming book on this subject.
Our gratitude not only goes
to the RTBF and RTB Radio, but certainly to Lt Col Paul Rorive for linking us up
to this event.
