Re: 2x Boeing Vertol 234

N245CH has been operating in Burkina Faso the last few months, so it might be on it's way back to Turkey where it was operating last year or it will be shipped back to the USA?

Hello,

You should be able to see them looking over the fence, but not from up close. I'm not sure if their registration is visible. Best to bring a stepladder with you.

Re: Belgian Skytech Mil Mi-26s in Brugge are "gone" now...

After disappearing in 2014 from their old location I 'rediscovered' them this morning, they are now in the harbour of Zeebrugge. Exact location is 51°19’21N 3°12’31E. Photography from outside is not possible and they are not yet visible on Google Earth either as the latest images date from 2009.

Re: Nord 1203 in Ramskapelle, Belgium

Most probably F-BEBX but I can't confirm this, looking on Google streetview it was there already in September 2013.
