Is 79+50 correct for an NH90 Sea Lion, as I thought the batch started at 79+51?

[Vinny]

I also belive they start with 51.
on 3/8 I noted the 79+60 without the Flir on its nose.

Hmmm, checked my notes again but wrote down 79+50. Which (if the batch starts at 79+51) could not be possible.
Perhaps it should have been 79+60.

The German Navy will celebrate it’s 40th anniversary of Sea Lynx operations with a formation flying on 30.8. from Nordholz.

[Bunzing]

Thanks for the information Herby.
Do you happen to know flying times of the formation, if only roughly? Would be much appreciated!

[Herby]

3./MFG 5 flew it’s largest formation ever and with eight(!) Sea Lynx Mk.88A, of which 83+04, 83+05, 83+13, 83+15, 83+20, 83+22, 83+23 and 83+26 were part of the formation, the squadron celebrated forty years of Lynx flying in the German Navy.
