Searching for title of French WW 2 comedy

Hello everyone,

I am looking for the title of a French World War 2 comedy. I don't know the names of the actors but I do recall a few scenes:

1. The opening scene involved two pilots (1 German, 1 French) in world war 1;

2. There was a funny scene with a nazi cuckoo clock with a Nazi eagle coming out with a cuckoo souns.

Anyone have any ideas ?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

It looks like "L'as des as" (1982), aka "Ace of Aces" in English.

Here is the cuckoo scene:

By the way, this is my first post here.

And actually it's not WW2. The story is set during the Berlin Olympic Games of 1936, with a prologue in WW1.
