Ik heb movements van 18-6, 22-7, 23-7 en 24-7, maar niet van augustus, mocht je deze willen laat het weten anders kan ik je niet verder helpen!

TIP oproep doen voor de (oud)leden van de Soesterberg Spotting Group, ze hadden ook een website "www.sghk.nl" de Soesterbergse Spotting Group the Hill Killers.
grtz. Attila the Hun.

www.sghk.nl bestaat niet meer. Ik ben een tijdje webmaster van www.sghk.nl geweest en movements van lokale kisten hebben hier sowieso niet op gestaan.

Tip: Wordt lid van de mailinglijst mil-spotters-forum@yahoogroups.com Hier zitten ook wel wat ex-Soesterberg spotters op aangesloten die je wellicht kunnen helpen.

Heb wel een overzicht van de visitors van een aantal dagen in augustus 1986... maar als lokale spotter geen waarnemingen van lokaal verkeer...

Thanks for all the replies. In August 1986 a Wolfhounds pilot had an in-flight medical emergency. After het got his plane safely on the ground at Soesterberg AB he was picked up and transported by aircraft rescue and firefighting personnel hospitalized for a while in Germany.

The story goes it was on August 3 and het was flying 81-0049. I’m curious which other F-15’s were part of the four-ship formation he was part of.

If you are an "old-"Soesterberg spotter, and you are part of Facebook, you could try to ask your question within the the Facebook Group for Soesterberg Spotters:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/299550903414128/

Perhaps somewhere there can help you?
Kind Regards / Groeten,

for those who want to know: there is still the official Soesterberg Spotting Group, adres Gen. Winkelmanstraat 10, 3769 EE Soesterberg, previous known as rhe Hillkillers. after closing down EHSB, we went on as a formal Soesterberg Spotting Group. We have all the data from EHSB digital and we will provide a nice list of the movements you want. On facebook as Soesterberg Spotters, website is down, but email us at sghkhill@gmail.com regards.

August 3, 1986 was a sunday, so it's not very likely.

Sorry, I cannot help, I did not visit EHSB that month, because Wildenrath was the place to be....... SI F-4Ds :wink:

Best regards,
Gerard

Thank you all for sending the information. @Gerard, you’re right about the Sunday not very likely that they flew a trainings mission.
