Are these helo's visible from outside? Or is this warehouse behind a gate in the weekend??

While I was there, on Feb.18, they were unwrapping the last one from it's white cocoon so they should all be clean. No idea however what happened with them between then and now.....

It's on private premises and not visible from outside unless you enter the premises itself but they might have covered the windows by now. The premises are surrounded by fenses and I assume they close it outside working days/hours.

Otger,

Are the three A109's (of the last 4 arrived) still wrapped in plastic inside?

Regards,

All 8 are unpacked, in the same building and shown as in the picture.
All are on private grounds, the gate is closed outside working hours,
they are not visible from outside the grounds and building windows are
not covered (no reason to cover the windows).

Regards,

Otger

We called last week to see if we could make an appointment to see and graph the choppers, and the answer was a firm "no". I guess they are fed up with us spotters.....

Just curious why everybody is so keen to see them now, while they were out there before not to far away at Bierset (before being stored).

Cheers,

ah well, maybe because Bierset is a long way from home? Much further away then Nieuwekerk a/d IJssel... (at least for me) and possibly because then went into storage before someone could catch a glimp of them (like me)?

[patrick dirksen]

Indeed, same here. I visited Bierset three times and also Brasschaat a few times, but the single one I still need (H15) has been in storage at Zutendaal for many, many years....
