Hans, all,
Have some additions and a request.

Went there on Saturday, when the left lift side was open (all weekend). Looking from the
terminal, I could see (and read) from right to left, Etendard (69), E2C (nn),
Etendard (32) and the tail section of the SA.316B. Even read the c/n as 1013.
Can you confirm this is "just" 13 and not 1013 as previous noted in the past.

Went back to the dock, straight across the R91, while standing between the gravel, I could
see a Rafale behind/ to the left of the Sa.316B. Could this have been the Rafale M 6?
I understand to the right of the Etendard 69 was also a Rafale.

Thanks for the reports up till now,
Charles

Also below deck on sunday Rafale M 6

I believe this should be M16 or M26.
All Rafale F1s (including the M6) are in long-term storage, awaiting the F3 upgrade.
