Currently in port in the town of Vathy on Ithaca: a megaship belonging to the emir of Qatar. On deck is Dauphin/EC155 A7-HMD :D

Yes, but unfortunately no movement in Kefallinia (EFL) regarding to the visit ... ;)
But still, almost 10 Business jets every day. Not bad :)
I wish you nice vacations!

Efcharisto poli!

The Katara and its helo left port around 1800 lt. Just before that, a B206 (SX-HCY or -HGY) did a flyby.

You are welcome!

It was SX-HCY.
Did you see G-SCOR? It was flying the whole last week around Ithaki.

Yes. I also logged SX-HZS on the 17th. Do you happen to know which CL215 overflew Vathy late afternoon/early evening on the 12th? That would be great!

Thanks again! Tonight at 19.30 local time, a Greek Chinook came whopping over Vathy harbour. Couldn't read it, unfortunately :-(

Tsipras was yesterday in Vathy. He landed at the Heliport in Anogi.
On the video in the news, you could see 1 more helicopter parked there.

Ah. That explains the tv van, all the additional police and the two extra Coast Guard vessels in port.. missed mr. Tsipras though. We were at Gidaki beach..
On the 22nd, only B206 SX-HCY was seen parked at Anogi. It seems I was a day too late over there..
