You're welcome Frank, we were hoping you liked it. So what countries are left that still fly F1's that we have not done a package for?
So far we've covered:
France
Spain
Morocco
Jordan
Iran? Do they still fly their "donated" F1's that they got from Iraq?

I have a feeling that Ecuador does, along with Jaguars and Kfirs.
EDIT
Just checked they do along with A-37s.
Sounds like a package waiting to happen there.

"For sure" operators that you haven't done yet are Ecuador (basic F1C/F1B with no refuel probe) and Gabon (former SAAF F1AZ).
According to Scramble, Iran has 12 former Iraqi Mirage F1EQ/F1BQ (basic F1C/F1B visual model but with fin leading edge extension and some with/some without refuel probe) that defected and are operating from Mashhad AB (OIMM).
Was very impressed with the airbase included in the Jordan package. I had been looking at some aerial views and was pleased to see the correct arrangements of the shelters grouped in threes. Nice work all around.
