Re: Wie wat waar vliegt daar - 2024 MIL

Just seen in the distance, a bit West of Epe over the Veluwe, a yellow helicopter going northbound. Very heavy sound, definately not an EC.145 or something similar. It was just too far away to recognise the type, it almost looked like a Sea King or something similar. But nothing on ADSB or FR24. Any...

Re: Replacement for Canon L 100-400 Mk1?

I have the first one, the Canon 100-400L mark II, and am very pleased with it! Can't compare with the Sigma though.

Re: NH-90 C/N plate (details) location

Easily readable, also from a distance with a scope or camera. And not all c/n to serial tie up are known, so go get them!

Re: Casement Aerodrome (Baldonnel) (EIME) 2024 MIL

Irish Air Corps Cessna FR172H 206 departed by road for display at the Shannon Aviation Museum
Interesting, as they also already have 210 on display.

Re: EHGR 13.04.2024

Volgens Helispot is (of gaat ?) ook D-603 onderdeel van de Nato missie IRAK (NMI). Kan iemand dit bevestigen (wellicht heb ik een bericht hierover gemist ....) Laatste door mij (virtueel) waargenomen vlucht van D-603 was op 12-03-2024 Die is 5 april al vertrokken, met de eerste Antonov. Zie eerder ...

Re: Deelen Aloutte III

Triggered by this topic, I today visited the museum. The Alouette is stored behind the building (not a "hoop schroot" or heap of scrap in my opinion). The museum intends to restore it, outside only as the inside is empty, and paint it in KLu camouflage. Also seen were the remains of Me.262 S21 WrkNr...
