I drove to Chievres today.

I missed the first group which probably left just before.

Upon arriving, around at 1:20 - 1:30 PM a first group took off and flew eastwards :
- 5 Apaches, including 07-07045 (leading and the only one showing a Longbow over the main rotor), 09-05602, 3 x unknown,
- One Chinook (14-08461),

At around 1:50 PM, departure (same direction) :
- 5 unknown Blackhawks wearing the red cross,
- one Chinook (14-08455),

At 3:50 PM, a lonely CH-47 (13-08146) left.

I left myself soon after the last Chinook.
What was left and visible on the parking from outside :
- North side (from N525 road) : 2 Apaches, 1 Red cross UH-60 and 2 x UH-60s.
- South side (visible from route de Mons and the small road going through the fields) : 3 x UH-60s.
I wasn't able to identify them.

So, not pretty much left I am afraid.

Great report, only 7002 and 5602 have the Longbow radar (at least on arrival in Zeebrugge) and not 7045

You are right. Sorry.
With regard to my pictures, the Longbow which left with 4 other AH-64 at around 1:30 PM was indeed 5602.

This morning UC-35A 95-00123 Duke36 is inbound from Stuttgart.

C-37A 01-0030 is also inbound as Spar80.

At this moment we have 36 choppers from the 3CAB in Germany. We are still missing number 37 UH-60M 11-20370. Is it still in Chièvres??
