My log from Bentlage:

Bo.105P		8611, 8676, 8698, 8705, 8744, 8791
CH-53G/GS	8406, 8414, 8426, 8430, 8471, 8472, 8473, 8475, 8488, 8492, 8502, 8512
EC.135T1	8253
F-104G		DF-101
H-34G		8035
SE.3130		7512, 7532 (+1 otherside without serial)
UH-1D		7116, 7267

Two more CH-53G were in Hangar 5 and serials should be 8468 and 8503. I got these from a German soldier and since they were doubles for me I did not investigate further.

Interestingly, no new choppers from HEER. No Tiger and no NH.90, aren't they proud of their new hardware....?

The other 3 where on the flightline all the way to the right, in front of a hangar. They were easily visible coming from the on base parking lot to the static. When I left two were being prepared to fly (that was around 17.00).

Unfortunately the fly-pass and approaches of the other 'Luftwaffe' participants was cancelled!
Otherwise we could add this one's also on the list! to bad...........but was a very nice hour of spotting!
F-4F
P-3C
C-160

The F-4F did some rehersal approaches on the field 2 weeks ago!

You should have come earlier, 4 Phantoms did their fly-bye at around 12.20 and the Transall did some spectecular stuff around 12.45 (before the field was even open...

No serials i was just entereing the base

Hi,

L-18C AC+515/D-EDMW (ex 9608) was also on static.
Hangar 5 was opened at about 19.15h and 8468 was towed to static, other CH-53 inside was 8503.
Alouette 7512 is from the Lehrwerkstatt (so G.I., not preserved)
UH-1D 7116 had no unit marks, but all 3 crewmembers had a HTG64 badge (that disbanded years ago !!!!)
Bo 8744 is not from MTHR15, but from HFUS-1 (Holzdorf).
The 2 flying Bo's were 8676 and 8698.
So 8611 was also outside the Bo hangar, I missed that one.
The unmarked Alouette 2 at the overside next to the Lehrwerkstatt should be 7718.
