Beauty, at the end of May 1994, in the skies of Alsace in France:
Formation flying of the 3 last models of the Mirage III serving in the Armee de l'Air. Leading, a Mirage 5F, no.2 a Mirage IIIBE, and tail-end Charlie a Mirage IIIE with the anniversary colours of Les Sangliers (Wild Boars) of 3/3 "Ardennes".

The second picture has a caption which explains the patches.

Cheers.

Gary Smith has made all the Aussie Mirages for FS9,available at his site, and a French site dedicated to the Mirage has the Mirage illustated above with the Wild Boar deco for FS9 as a repaint for G. Smith's IIIO Mirage base a/c.All these are great to have in FS9, with the exception of the Pakistani one where the repainter has made too heavy and too thick panel lines which make it look sickening. But the Ardennes's one illustrated here is great.
