Hi Hans and all, Did you take a picture of the dumped Mi-8's ?? I think the other one is Z2342 (see link below). On Google Earth you can see it is situated here since at least 2021. https://www.airhistory.net/photo/550878/Z2342 I did, it is not the same aircraft. The photo of Z2342 shows it to be mo...

Hi Erwin,

It carried Mi-171E just after the cockpit and was in full 4 Squadron markings.

Cheers,
Bas

Hi Erwin, Regarding the unmarked Mi-171, this could also be SMH-4420 that was mentioned in SLAF's 2022 performance report as slated to be returned to service. Or even "enigma" aircraft SMH-585 last seen in 2017. I doubt it could be SMH-585. The unserialled aircraft was a Mi-171E and I unde...

Hi Erwin and all, At Ekala in 2011, we saw CT123 with a 'doctored' nose. It had "406 GA' on the tail plate. This vanished from GE before the one at the gate appeared as "CT121". 'CT123' is no longer at Ekala indeed. There was a CT123 at the SLAF museum though... The antennae lay-out o...

Hi Ian, According to https://www.siai-marchetti.nl/f260pro4.html SF260TP CT121 was shot down and written off on 13 sep 1990. One might assume that this aircraft was indeed lost and no longer in a state to be preserved. (This combat loss might also be the reason several preserved SF260's are painted ...

Hi Ian, Excellent log. A few additions from my side: Helicopter storage line: An unmarked DHC-1 tail was behind the fence by this line of helicopters This aft fuselage/tail section was CT109 (photo-proof). I'm not sure how this ties in with CT109 being at the AF museum. Preserved: Gate SF260TP CT121...

A few additions from a quick stop on October 10th:

92-3293 carried 145th AW North Carolina ANG markings, 96-0008 was from the 97th AMW. Also there were an unidentified RAF C-17 and C-17A c/n IND1 which should be CB8001.

CEF 409 Mi-17 en Mi-35 crossing CTR.

Gaaf zeg.

De volgende locals werden vandaag (25-11-2021) waargenomen: AH-64D Q-16 301 Squadron Netherlands Air Force 3011 AH-64D (Q-18) 301 Squadron Netherlands Air Force 3013 AH-64D (Q-19) 301 Squadron Apache 05 AH-64D Q-23 301 Squadron Bat 73 CH-47D D-667 298 Squadron Grizzly 62/Grizzly 04 CH-47F D-480 298 ...

The DHC-8 destroyed is reported as N800L. The C-146A may have been 12-3085, which has been flying as MAGMA40 as of late. This is a Africa Det callsign for the 524th. So far, all that is pure speculation. I guess the only thing we can say for sure at this time is that a C-12/Beech 200 fell victim to...

The first two were 786-067 and 786-068. Can't help you with the third I'm afraid...

Flight 9: CH-47F 15-08197 en 15-08464 as Army 08197

Was dat niet 08192 die rond 16:30u met een maatje van EHV naar RTM ging?
08197 was vorige week in Zeebrugge en Chievres.

Klopt, typo aan mijn kant. Aangepast.
