Turkish CL-215 special colour scheme

Post by hornise »

26.11.2011 - Ognyanovo Dam in the vicinity of Elin Pelin, Bulgaria

Jaw dropping action scenes as part of "The Expendables 2" movie took place at Ognyanovo Dam last week. The highlight during the shots was a firefighting aircraft Canadair CL-215 of the Turkish Aeronautical Association (Türk Hava Kurumu). The plane was repainted in grey specially for the movie. It was re-adorned after its arrival in Sofia on the 19th of November and its original registration mark TC-TKZ was replaced with the decorative XP2112.
Besides the plane, a Greek Eurocopter AS-355N (SX-HJV) helicopter, fitted with a motion picture camera took part in the shooting.Ognyanovo dam, Bulgaria - 26.11.2011

Great shots of a great aircraft, Anton. Thanks for sharing! Stunning scenery as well... Must have been mega fun to watch these flying scenes!

As a matter of interest, this is how TC-TKZ looked June 5, 2011, when we found her at Efes-Selçuk airfield, Turkey:
