09-20187 UH-60M Arr Greece 25Oct23 > Bulgaria

[Sjoerd]

The 15th and final HH-60M (13-20613) revealed itself today in northern Greece heading for Thessaloniki area. https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=ae56cd

[Sjoerd]

A picture was send to me from an AH-64E (17-03158 / 2 stripes) landing at Koksijde and moving to the port of Zeebrugge shortly afterwards. The 5 was hard to read on the l/h side, but this is one of 8 that arrived though Greece and is now outbound with 1 CAB back to the US. Note this is also unit update, as it was last noted in 2021.

There have been several flights into Zeebrugge now, some tracking, some not, however all have been identified so far to my knowledge. Here's what I have found so far regarding the outbound, clearly marking the ones present in Zeebrugge/Koksijde is my main goal now;

Note: 2x AH-64E made a fuel stop at Eindhoven on June-24th in the afternoon, but were not identified. These likely continued to Zeebrugge port as they were not noted at Koksijde as far as I'm aware. Edit: after reviewing the LOGS, one is most likely 14-01015 as this one was not noted.

# = 1 CAB mks

09-20211, 11-20375 and 07-20094 inbound zeebrugge, via Koksijde

12-20451 inbound Thessaloniki Harbour

[Sjoerd]

09-20211, 11-20375 and 07-20094 inbound zeebrugge, via Koksijde

12-20451 inbound Thessaloniki Harbour

Thanks Gijs! I assume you mean 09-20221. Also 5 Apaches and 3 HH-60's arrived in port via Eindhoven today.

Too bad some are also moving out via Thessaloniki (this could be a flt as well). So far just one single helicopter (Apache) in Zeebrugge port which didn't arrive via Vlissingen.

[GIPS]

Of course 221..

[Edwin]

I can add a few more of the missing Apaches in your list that were noted during their deployment and must have arrived through Greece:
17-03146$ nmks
17-03180 3 stripes
17-03183 2 stripes
17-03185 nmks
18-03208 2 stripes
So only two more to go!

I also have a note regarding two additional Blackhawks 09-20220$ and 10-20255$, but don't know if they were identified by photo or ADSB.

[Sjoerd]

Thanks Edwin!

[Adraf]

Fuel stop at SP now on the way to Koksijde:
R20303 flight
HH-60Ms 10-20303, 11-20350
AH-64E 17-03191

[CJ]

10-20303 landing now at the port of Zeebrugge, ex Koksijde (ADSBX).

[Sjoerd]

11-20420 seems inbound Illesheim from Romania. This is one of the missing serials, so it appears.

[Adraf]

Fuel stop at SP now on the way to Koksijde:
R20241 flight
UH-60Ms 10-20241, 11-20412, 11-20429, 10-20281

[Jan-Pieter Bergmans]

Noted on adsb today 27-06 were 2 UH-60Ms that went to Koksijde (via Spangdahlem I think). Presumably later went to Zeebrugge.

12-20456
12-20459

Flying as R20459.

[Sjoerd]

I can confirm AH-64E 17-03133 is correct after checking it myself yesterday.

[Sjoerd]

I have a question about the Apache with the red and white (two) stripes on the LH(!) side. I noted this one myself 27/6 at Illesheim. I only read the last serial as 7 (in white), the others being blocked by its tail rotor blades. Are there more then just one with those red/white stripes? In Vlissingen 17-03190 was noted with a red/white stripe, but that was on the RH-side! All others ending with a 7 have been accounted for, so which could I have seen?

Edit; I have been made aware this is 17-03177 incl. seeing some photographical evidence. So now we have 25 serials. Are there more deployed then the usual 24, or did we screw up a serial somewhere?
