Scramble Messageboard

Large formation from about 16 choppers just took off.

Minutes later Wildcat ZZ398 (army) arrived.

Although not typical military I like the 'vortex swoosh'.
At least it is something different then the regular grey

Thanks for posting and good panning on #3 and #4!

Polish Gulf is in front of the jetcenter now and the engines are already running.

Als er vanmiddag ben, zal ik wat meer naar de grond kijken dan gebruikelijk ....

If I'm right most of the refueling is done near the phase maintenance hangars of the Chinooks and Cougars. Almost impossible to see from outside. Last week a few helicopters did the refueling at the 301 platform. Maybe because of hot refueling was not available at that moment.

If still there, taking a nice picture is very possible (in the morning) from the Brandenburgbaan (near the traumaheli spot).

According to info on Flickr: Nikon D7200
70.0-300.0 mm f/4.5-5.6

Thanks for posting this (and many other) pics from te Eastern part of Europe.

Nice light on that Ohio F16

USS Ross already departed.

Beste Randy, De 20e NH90 is op 10-06-2016 overgedragen aan Defensie. Voor zover ik het weet zijn het allemaal NFH-toestellen die (of een aantal daarvan) omgebouwd kunnen worden naar TNFH. Op deze link lees je er meer over (al is niet alle data actueel): https://www.defensie.nl/organisatie/luchtmacht...

The ship is departing now (14:05 LT).
Courgars are both on the deck.

One of the LPD 's (Landing Platform Dock) of the Royal Netherlands Navy is currently at the Holland-Amerika kade, near the Erasmusbridge.
Two Cougars are on the deck, with folded rotorblades.

According to the program in the PDF mentioned above flying activities will start at 9:45L

@CBR Thanks a lot!
