EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Belgian Air Force's Fouga CM.170-1 Magister MT-48 aircraft (msn 204) of the Diables Rouge (Red Devils) aerobatic display team, circa 1970. The Belgian Air Force, an integral part of the country's military history, has a rich tradition of aviation excellence, and the Diables Rouge team is a testament to that legacy. The Fouga CM.170 Magister, a versatile and agile French-designed training aircraft, served in the Belgian Air Force from 1958 until the late 1980s. The MT-48 variant, specifically, was used primarily for advanced jet training and aerobatic displays. This particular aircraft, with its distinctive red, white, and black livery, is a striking representation of the team's bold and dynamic spirit. As the Diables Rouge team took to the skies, they captivated audiences with their intricate formations, high-speed passes, and daring maneuvers. The team's skill and precision were a testament to the rigorous training and dedication of its pilots. This photograph, taken during an aerobatic display, encapsulates the thrill and excitement of aviation during this era. The Fouga CM.170-1 Magister MT-48, with its powerful engines and sleek design, was a favorite among aviation enthusiasts and spectators alike. Its retirement from service marked the end of an era in Belgian military aviation, but its legacy lives on through the memories and stories of those who experienced it firsthand. This photograph, part of The Tony Lovelock Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the skies were filled with the sounds of roaring jet engines and the sight of daring aerobatic displays.
