What I get from this story is that the aircraft had technical issues, no mid-air collision or whatsoever. Pilot ejected safely.

Merci beaucoup Tintin; I hope you will oncemore be able to share the complete (E***) serial with us as soon as it becomes known; as always, your information is much appreciated !

No changes for the season as PAF has two replacement Alphajets

Have you confirmed info that it E95 was involved or it is just based on
code 8 which was last noted on E95?
I have been told it is E122/F-TERD.

My mistake!!!
There was a confusion about the aircraft, the Alphajet involved ( Athos 8 ) was number 0.

Sorry... When "numero 8" was shown I thought it was the tail-code....

Who can confirm the correct PdF Alpha Jet serial?
According Otger its E122/F-TERD (tailcode 3) and Tintin reports tailcode 0 (E114/F-TERR) ?

[The DJ]

Its E122/F-TERD.

P.S. They also pulled E46/F-UHRF out of long term storage, it was seen flying last week with PdF.

[Tintin]

Its E122/F-TERD.

You're right, it's Alphajet E122/F-TERD, the thing is that this aircraft has already been seen with tail codes 1 / 4 / 6.
Anyway, PAF resumed trainings since thursday afternoon
