Above:- GAF Mirage IIIO A3-51 on static display, on a cold and blustery morning at Avalon Air Show, 2011.
Above:- Forty years earlier – Mirage IIIO A3-4 in the static park at Richmond RAAF Air Show. The technology may be outdated, but those classic lines will never age. One interesting difference between the photos is in the position of the air intake shock cones. A3-4’s cones are in the retracted, low-speed position, while A3-51’s are in the forward position for high speed flight.
