cag_200 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 hi there, Can someone tell me if FAF Jaguars (or Mirages) use regular red RBF tags? It is probably NATO-standard but since the french feel a bit difference ;) do they use other kind of Tags? I noticed yellow ones? Some are just red, the text is left out.

Koen L Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 From what I've seen they just used orange/red tags without any text. France wasn't part of NATO during their period of Jaguar operations so they didn't have much to do with 'NATO-standards' (if there are any NATO-standards in RBF tags at all).

norbert Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Hi I just looked at a Super-Frelon walk around I took in 2008 : It's remove before flight on the yellow tag, nothing in french. and in our discutions in french, we speak always from RBF. So it was probably adopted with the american jets in the 50s. Norbert Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cag_200 Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) I am not sure what Norway uses but Holland and Belgium just "Remove before Flight". My guess was some kind of Nato-procedure .. same nukes, same red tags. >>From what I've seen they just used orange/red tags without any text.
