Quite an armada to destroy these 7 aircraft: "A patrol of French Rafale fighters, backed by an E2-C Hawkeye AWACS, carried out air strikes overnight and around 20 French planes supported by four tankers and an E3F AWACS struck targets during the day".

Normally the answer wold be: get back on track as soon as the troubles are over.quixoticguide wrote:What will happen with Libyan Airlines and Afriqiyah Airways?
Reality is probably more difficult: we can imagine that the top members of the regime are in one way or the other share holders. Many foreign bank accounts are frozen and even transfered.
It is a point I have been thinking about the moment that the UN was talking about imposing sanctions.

Interesting to read that an Osprey was involved. We don't see those here often.
