One question from the spottersday: in the morning, there were two BK117's parked on the Guardia Civil apron. One was in the line with the two EC135's with the nose towards us (that was HU22.02/09-202), the second one was halfway between this line and the line with stored Bo105's with its tail towards us. Later in the day, it was towed inside. Did anyone get the registration of that one please?
I really do have HU.16-1 in my notebook for the Alouette. That may well be a error on my side though. Two pictures on airliners.net also mention HD.16-1 (although the serial cannot be seen on the pictures).

Hello Erwin,
I also have HU.16-1 in my notebook.
Maybe the it has different serials on either side (did not notice that).
One more question for those present at the spottersday: did anyone log the Phantom that was parked near the F-86 on a pole at the platform where the 6 Hornets were parked? And I do not mean the grey RF-4C with special coloured tail for the withdrawal in 2002, but the one in SEA camouflage with its nose towards us. In my pictures I think I can make out the code "12-15" but I'm not sure... This would make it C.12-19 which used to be parked in a field next to a CASA 352L which I did not see.

Could be indeed.
The Casa 352 and the others at the base museum are gone. At least from that spot. I understood the Casa is to Cuatro Vientos, the rest I do not know about. So it could be you saw the 12-15 somewhere else.

We saw a CASA 352 in a hangar, near the CASA 295 platform at Getafe. Quite sure this is the ex Torrejon one.

I noticed one in the hanger behind the CL.215's at Getafe. You mean that one?
Not read by me.

Yep, the Casa 352 was in the hangar behind the CL215 at Getafe.
It will be restored there and be preserved in the future at Getafe.
The ex Torrejon base museum Phantom C.12-19/12-15 is now preserved next to the pole mounted F-86 near the Hornet ramp.
For the benefit of Mr. Kite, there will be a show tonight on trampoline
