It's quite a story of "Lost, Found and Restored" for our French Navy
(Marine) 566 spotted all alone and neglected at Tahiti's Papeete
International Airport back in the mid-1980's. Gifted to HARS by the
French government, the legendary surveillance aircraft was restored by
volunteers and flown across to Australia in 1989 and one of our first
successful restorations. France's surveillance in the South Pacific
was replaced by the jet-powered Dassault Falcon 200 "Gardian" and four
years ago French Navy pilots flew into Albion Park to pay their
respects to their esteemed predecessor.
Built in 1959, our legendary French Navy "Neptune" is a frequent
feature at Open Tarmac Weekends and other occasions as its powerful
engines are fired up and given a run and taxi.
Come visit us soon at HARS, Albion Park, NSW.
