A literary livery created by Happy Design Studio adorned the Dassault Rafale as it roared over Le Bourget yesterday. The French fighter's paint scheme shows the character "le petit Prince", drawn from the work of French author and aviator Antoine de Saint Exupery - who served in the French army base at Saint Dizier, where a Rafale fleet is now stationed. Happy was invited to create the livery to celebrate 30,000h of flying, cumulatively, by the type, yielding this happy outcome.
