F-BHRE  Sud-Est SE-210 Caravelle 3                           (c/n  9)

                                 

                                     F-BHRE at London Airport in the mid 1960s.  Note Air France Viscount in the background in this
                                     Jennifer Gradidge shot.   I flew in this Caravelle, named "Arois" many times in the early 1970s from
                                     LHR to Lyon, with the occasional diversion to Grenoble when Bron was socked in (as it often was
                                     during the winter).  Originally built as a Mark 1 and converted to Mark 3 status, it served Air France
                                     faithfully from July of 1959 until its withdrawal from use on 1 March 1980.
