Bückeburg 2017 MIL

Post by Daniel Ravenswaay »

Seen today were the following airframes:

8251, 8252, 8253, 8255, 8259, 8262, 8265 all flying
+2 (one took off but wasn't read off due to distance. Later 8264 was spotted on ADS-B so possibly one of these was the aforementioned airframe. It was heading south)

7909 NH-90 flying
7908 (?) NH-90 tow / this still needs confirmation by computer
+1 engine test for 1,5 hours

Overflying:
5405 A-400M inbound Wunstorf (source for serial ADS-B)

Scramble also mentions CH-53's as stationed on this airbase, however none were seen. Can somebody shed any light on this?
Thanks!

on Flugzeugforum there is a pilot looking to get in touch with the spotters with "a car with the Netherlands number plate outside the fence".
He made his first solo flight and is hoping for pictures :wink:
