Spent some time 14:15-15:30LT here in the rain, plus another try @17:00LT when the weather improved.
Numbers read off in order of parking front to back (spot 1). Some black serials were too hard to read, but from the generic 1 CAB-list posted elsewhere I am sure you can fill in the blanks...

And local flyers in spite of low cloud base:

As expected due to weather conditions no US activity today, but those 18 currently present are eagerly awaiting the hoards of spotters to take their try this weekend. Be nice to the guards!
Choppers are parked at the western end of the parallel runway, so spot (1) is the best place to be. Best sun position (if any) is afternoon. Some decent photo's may even be possible. Mind you that this corner is nature reserve, so do consider where to park your car and be prepared to walk a bit.
Spot (8) & (9) are no good (too distant) for reading off the parked choppers.
