No, four are already at Portland for the Ukraine, two more at Nordholz, which will also go to the UK. One now at Gatow, two special painted becoming a gate guard and for exhibition Aeronauticum. Thank you for the update Herby. It seems then I overlooked one, as I have only 89+56, 61 and 64 being de...

That's interesting. Will Ukraine now receive one of the specially painted ones instead, since they were promised to get six Sea King Mk 41s?

Came in hot and high (generally in line with a high key approach) but to bleed off some extra energy, the pilot flew some extra high-banking turns on final which looked both effective and spectacular. (not sure if the term SJA is common in the air force - we sometimes use it when ending up a bit hig...

J-062 landed in Leeuwarden with a nice screaming jesus approach, apparently due a technical issue.

Minor detail: it's a Beech F33C, not an -A.

Cheers.

You're correct, rephrased my earlier post. I wouldn't be surprised that these aircraft will end up somewhere else indeed, time will tell.

Will they continue to Belgium tomorrow? It seems they are expected to arrive at Charleroi on 15 December. An official report does not state that these are handed over to another country, only that the handover to Draken has been delayed. https://www.rijksoverheid.nl/documenten/kamerstukken/2022/12/...

On its return from Drachten, the NH90 was seen over Apeldoorn without any other helicopters trailing.

Weet niet of ik het al voorbij heb zien komen, anders bij deze. De registraties voor de A32xneo vallen in de blokken PH-AXx en -AYx.

On 4.2. KC-30M T-056 of MMU visited twice. No nitpicking intended, but KC-30 is a designation used by the RAAF only. The NATO refers to these aircraft as A330 MRTT. This designation can be found amongst others on the official websites of the RNethAF, Luftwaffe, and the European Air Transport Comman...

PH-BGT in Nov22, PH-BGX in Dec22, PH-BGK in Jan23

Als ik de approach charts van SPL bekijk, lijkt het mij dat bijv PEVOS de "opvolger" is van de zgn locator NDB welke vroeger op zo'n 10 nm recht voor de baan stonden. Nou denk ik niet dat 18R ooit een locater gehad heeft, maar bijv rwy 27 had vroeger WP als locator. Nu lijkt dat waypoint ...

Dank Rob

Thanks for the heads-up, highly appreciated.

Question (for the locals): do newly delivered F-35s taxi north (322 side) or south?

TIA and cheers!
