Hello,

Both Mirage 2000's had the normal two-tone grey camo with the EC 04.033 badge and code.

Additions to the log of October 13th:

Mirage 2000C 93/12-YA took off in in the morning, heading for Orange.

Other Mirages seen this day:
85/12-LI (on platform)
105/33-LJ (in sunshed, ex-Djibouti hence the '33' code)

Besides the four F-16's you logged there should be a fifth one somewhere in a maintenance hangar.

What is the significance of the 12-L_ code please?

In Djibouti there is a squadron deployed (EC 4/33 Vexin) with Mirage 2000D and Mirage 2000C (used by Cambrai). So the exact code for the EC 4/33 Vexin in Djibouti is 33-Lx.
In this case the bird that you have seen, come from or will go to Djibouti

Should be 33-LJ I guess?
