(notes: as the days of TLP at Florennes are counted now and with one of the last flying courses taking place from this airbase, I undertook another journey to Belgium. Weather was good as forecasted and allowed for a mass-launch of 18 TLP participating aircraft without noteworthy ground-abort to be enjoyed in nice sunshine. The nice mix of aircraft types made up for a very impressive experience. My personal highlights were the Italian Eurofighters, the three Greek Mirage 2000s and no less than five Spanish F-18s. Also very welcome were the pairs of German Tornados, French Mirage F.1CR, Italian AMX’ and Polish F-16s. Recoveries – wich mostly took place in the form of (dual) straight-in approaches - could also be well enjoyed in the nice and clear early spring weather. Training approaches of three French Alpha Jets and a four-ship recovery of based F-16s were welcome additions. Once again, a nice and successful day at “Superbase” Florennes)

this new code system depict the airbase. So, Mirage F1CR from Reims (Base aérienne 112 -Air Base 112-) are now carrying the '112' code. St-Dizier is BA 113, RAFALE are already coded in the '113' area (113 HA to HZ for the 1/7, 113 IA to IZ -if enough aircraft :D - for the future 1/91). I have seen a Mirage 2000D from Nancy, coded 3-AS, instead of '133' :roll: ...
A good opportunity to start a new collection if we can photograph all aircraft, of course !
