Zeebrugge 2022

Post by AK01 »

ASF01, a flight of two AustrianAF S-70A's just landed in the port of Zeebrugge.
ADSB shows 6M-BG, but confirmation is required.
They routed from Austria via Manching and Hahn to Zeebrugge. Most likely for shipping to the USA.
Partial credit FF.

Blackhawk 6M-BH left Zeebrugge on 18/02 to Ostend Airport for overnight. Then they continue their journey back home. On 11/01 6M-BD flew from Zeebrugge to Ostend airport and departed the day after back to Austria.

So likely to say that these BB and BG arrived at Zeebrugge for avionics updates (a.o. glass cockpit upgrades) in the US and that BD and BH were picked up after arriving at Zeebrugge for their return to Austria after receiving updates in the USA.
