Patrouille de France - de l’instruction à l’excellence

As an official air and space painter, I present in this sketchbook the daily life of the most emblematic ambassadors of the French Air Force, committed to represent all aviators and touch the French during demonstrations and aerial parades.

On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the Patrouille de France I visited the air base of Salon-de-Provence to capture the daily life of PAF pilots, mechanics, the legendary tricolor Alphajets, but also the aerobatic team and the prestigious scenery of the École de l’Air.

From officer cadets to elite fighter pilots, it's a journey from training to excellence to which this notebook invites you.

The book was released at the air show in Salon-de-Provence on the 20th and 21st of May 2023.
