Thanks Thomas for your quick reply! Nice to see some stateside Blackhawks over here. Do you happen to have the units of these two as well?

Best regards,
Bas

I think the best is an overview of all 4 Blackhawks, just in case you have the opportunity to see the others too. All 4 have big orange numbers painted on the side
i write behind the serial.

85-24424/1 is A/2-135 AVN Colorado ArNG
01-26882/2 is A/2-211 AVN Utah ArNG
86-24557/3 is A/2-211 AVN Utah ArNG
87-24640/4 is not sure which Unit but definetely a Kansas ArNG. (4 possible AVN Co's).

Happy hunting
Regards Thomas

Thanks again Thomas. However I didn't see any orange numbers on the two I saw at Stuttgart. I have to say though I could only see them from the back and slightly from the left.
Unfortunately I am not in the area anymore so little chance I will see the other two.

Is the C-146 tdy as well, or just passing through?

You are welcome, Bas . Yes the big numbers on the side are not easy too see from this angle but fortunately on all 4 Blackhawks the last 3 digits of the serial are painted in white. ( At least something like white ). The C-146A's here are changing from time to time and are mostly operating to destinations in the south. They use Stuttgart as their " Base" that is correct. Usualy they dont park the in front of the big Hangar 5, but actualy the small ramp in front of hangar 4 is used by the UH-60's. The arriving C-5M on monday had to be parked on the western ramp because they could not turn into parking position properly because of the C-146A .

Thanks Thomas. In case it's of interest, I've put my photos of '2', '3' and '4' at Stuttgart on https://germanyplanes.wordpress.com/. These were taken on 2-Aug-16 and '1' was not seen. Does any UH-60 expert out there who know why 01-26882 has a pointed nose?
