Roland Garros

Une mise en ligne très à propos en cette période de saison tennistique! merci.
Cependant la taille des photos est à revoir car non affichable sur la page.Sixcyl 00:21, 30 May 2014 (MDT)

The picture size uncorrect ? Well ... It's always the same song since more a year. Auto resizing works sometimes, sometimes not. Usually, after two or three "preview", the grey screenshots end up being displayed correctly at 500 pixels and able in full resolution. As I've catched lots of aircrafts ... There will be a high number of preview to fix the problme, pix by pix. But uploading so many images one by one is of an other age, especially for such project with nearly a hundred to put online !

The free VOD is over but I'm afraid this documentary could become a testimony of the 2013 museum aviation spectra in France as :
  • end of 2014 and 2015 will see heavy work at the MAE (Paris Le Bourget Air & Space Museum);
  • last week (Monday 9th june 2014), at La Ferté Alais, an hailstorm heavily damaged the hangar and several airplanes, especially the old wood. They will fly again. The more you could help the society, the quickest it will be.
