Leased aircraft[edit]

It seems that Air Afrique had leased a L-1011 from Gulf Air at the beginning of the 1990s: http://www.airliners.net/photo/Air-Afrique/Lockheed-L-1011-385-1-15-TriStar/1015371/L/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yaamboo (talk • contribs) 06:43, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

DC-8-55(F) "Delivered new to Seaboard World in 1967. Operated by Air Afrique between 1975-88.": http://www.airliners.net/photo/Air-Afrique/McDonnell-Douglas-DC-8-55(F)/0082043/M/ --Yaamboo (talk) 06:46, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Articles related to Air Afrique on the Jeune Afrique website[edit]

Just dropping these links here, will expand the corresponding text later :) [1] [2] [3] [4] --Yaamboo (talk) 06:58, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

More external sources[edit]

http://www.airafrique.eu/ seems to be a personal website with a lot of information on the company... Not very reliable as a source though.
http://aerobernie.ae.funpic.de/Air%20Afrique.html contains a description of the fleet.

Photos[edit]

It seems we can use these according to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Defunct Airlines#3000 photos now available. :) --Yaamboo (talk) 13:10, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Also [5] according to [6]. More ORTS templates with airliners.net here, but you need to read if they can be used on all pics at Airliners.net or not. --Yaamboo (talk) 13:15, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is this correct?[edit]

Paris–Fort Lamy–Dakar–Brazzaville

Shouldn't "Dakar" be "Bangui"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by FromTheVillage (talk • contribs) 04:38, 23 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed. It is supported by a reference.--Jetstreamer ^Talk 10:15, 23 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I just realized you were *dis*agreeing with me, I thought you were agreeing -- which is why I had done the change (which you subsequently undid). I now have re-done the change and added a reference, a web page with an image of the route network in 1973. I can also (or instead?) add a reference to the Central African schedule from the same page, which clearly shows the Brazzaville-Bangui-Ft. Lamy-France routing.
