First flightplan outbound EHWO already filed for tomorrow morning.
R20865 5x H60 ETD 0900lt

According to https://metar-taf.com/ the cloud ceiling tomorrow is at 500ft (anywhere from Woensdrecht to Spang / or more central DE). Which seems pretty (if not, too) low for these flight ops.

So to put this at rest once and for all: they are at the NW side of the base. Which is north of the runway, so some say the 131 EMVO side, and it is the west side of base, so some say at the Fokker side....

And now the million dollar question is: when will they move on towards Germany? Pretty soon I'm afraid?

Patrick, they are parked on the northern taxiway, which is also named north, where EMVO is near the 07 side. The helicopters stretch almost along the whole length so 'west' is not logical. An Fokker or 'Aviolanda' nowadays is southwest, next to LCW.

If there is any light in the next few days, you can see light on the tails from the 25 end in the morning and afternoon from 07. All in all the northern track is not the best from the outside

At the moment, cloud base is 200/300ft which is not good for the helo's. It seems that the weather will be a bit better in the afternoon, so if they leave it will probably be after 13:00 (because of closing time between 1200-1300 for lunch).
