US Navy SH60B 163593

Post by Withnail »

Hello,

I've got a question to which I hope someone knows the answer. Somewhere in the 1980s/1990s I saw the US Navy SH60B 163593 passing over central Netherlands. I'm trying to find out when exactly that was. I know (or I think I know) it visited Valkenburg. Is there someone who can confirm this. And if so, on which exact date did this helicopter visit Valkenburg?

It was in the Netherlands because there was a ship in the neighbourhood.
It arrived at Valkenburg on oktober 4th 1991 for a fuel stop and then departed to Soesterberg the same day. It again visited Valkenburg on oktober 15th....two times and departed the same day.

It was 163593/HQ-473 from HSL-46 .


Rgds,
