That's like telling your grandfather to where a pair of air jordans

hawk insignia

Looking at the photo posted by Dan, I wonder whether TFC selected the Hawk because the squadron insignia fits its own or selected its insignia because it owned the Hawk. On the other hand, perhaps TFC owns the French air force?

Jokes aside, congratulations to Stephen, Steve and all those involved in this restoration. Can't wait to see it in the metal!
