If you are talking about French Airspace, it has been already discussed on another thread : Chirac has clearly stated that the French Airspace will be open to US. "It goes without saying" he said, "USA are still our allies".[/QUOTE]well... that's interesting. Didn't France block US overflight for the attack on Libya some years back? Perhaps my memory is faulty (quite possible), but it appears that this is a different policy from past French positions.
