EHWO 05dec21 US Army Helicopters

[Polleke_NL]

Hi all,

Went for a quick visit to EHWO and noted a large number of helicopters (as known).
I counted 7 x Ah64, 17x UH60 and 6x CH47 (including 14-08462 so no longer inside), but majority of the helicopters could not be ready by me. Does anyone happen to have a current overview of which helicopters should be present today?

Thanks in advance,

Hi Ruud,

I went for a visit today (in the morning between 11:00 and 12:00) as well as I couldn't manage to read all helicopters last Tuesday. I counted 33 helicopters. 6 Chinooks left last week, so that means the following ones were present today:

AH-64E
10-09002
12-09039
14-03021
14-03030
14-03037
16-03083
16-03098
18-03200
18-03206

CH-47F
13-08138
13-08433
14-08462
15-08177
15-08182
16-08217

HH-60M
16-20856
16-20861
16-20862
16-20864
16-20865
16-20866
16-20867
16-20868
16-20869

UH-60L
92-26436
93-26480
93-26510
93-26525
98-26817
94-26565
94-26575
98-26828

UH-60M
16-20810

All visual confirmed by me by the way, except 3 Chinooks and 4 Apaches - but because I've seen the total of 33 pieces it's not that hard to guess these ones.

I hope this helps you!

I went the day before and I can confirm all remaining 33 helicopters were outside. From runway 07 towards runway 25 the following was noted:

4x UH*/HH-60M: 20861/20864/20810*/20865
4x UH-60L: 26436 (last 3 in white)/26480/26510/26525 (last 3 in white)
(empty space)
4x AH-64E: 43037/83206 (incl. sharkmouth)/43030/29039
6x HH-60M: 20862/20856/20868/20867/20869/20866
3x AH-64E: 43021 +2 (should be either one of these 09002 + 83200 or 63098)
4x CH-47F: not readable
(empty space)
1x AH-64E: should be (should be one of these 09002 /83200 or 63098)
4x UH-60L: not readable, but should be 26565/26575/26817/26828/
2x CH-47F: 16-08217, 14-08462
1x AH-64E: 16-03083

Anyone for the (GIA?) F-16A accross the runway? I noted it on one of my pics while walking parralel to the taxitrack reading of the first line of Apaches from accross the heath.

Thanks guys, highly appreciated !!

6x CH47 (including 14-08462 so no longer inside)

Just to put the record straight, this was never inside at Woensdrecht, only at Vlissingen. It arrived later than the rest of the choppers and was parked at the end of the line (on the Eastern side).
