Cruzex 2006

Mirage graveyard, luckily many were preserved throughout the country for all of us to enjoy.

Stored awaiting preservation, still with the commemorative markings for the back seat ride given to Ayrton Senna da Silva 21 March 1989 and the first commander of the 1°GDA, Cel. Antonio Henrique "Jaguar 01".It is now preserved at the MUSAL, Dos Afonsos. The aircraft itself was a former French Air Force Mirage IIIBE serial 271, obtained by Brazil in 1983 and delivered 24 February 1984. As with most Mirages, its construction number is unknown. They simply started a sequence for the duals with 201. So this is the 71st Mirage IIIBE.
