Worden de ECM-sensoren van de D nu overgezet naar de lege plaatsen op de F ?

Possible the 665 was used as back up this day, after the 15th not seen flying anymore.

Status update:
D-665 (uitdienst gegaan op 15-11-2021, deze kist blijft op Gilze)
D-101 zal vandaag (14-12-2021) uit dienst gaan en naar het LCW Woensdrecht vliegen
D-667 zal de vloot op 22-12-2021 verlaten en naar het LCW Woensdrecht vliegen

Daarmee komt er dit jaar een einde aan het CH-47D tijdperk.
