Only weeks after this picture was taken, on 27 February 2007, this Hellenic Air Force Mirage 2000EG took-off from Tanagra AB (Greece) and suffered an engine flame out immediately after take-off. The pilot pilot did try to start up engine according to its instructions, but the Snecma engine failed, so the pilot ejected to safety but the delta crashed on mother earth.
