Rumors, fueled by pilots at Nordholz, are going round that the farewell Sea King will go to England, and will be stripped of the livery before going to the Ukraine.
The other special will stay at Nordholz.

Currently: time will tell what the true story will be.

The last King 8958 is on the way to GB.

The last King 8958 is on the way to GB.

Sources from Germany say that this is actually the 89+63, not the 58.
Is this a visual confirmation?

[Richard from Rotterdam]

Judging from ADSB it is currently following the Dutch coast from Zandvoort southbound.
