And these are all visible? Not parked inside a warehouse or so.

And these are all visible? Not parked inside a warehouse or so.

Visible? yes..., readable? The majority not due to way of storage, containers blocking the sight partially and Blackhawk's tailwings being stored folded upwards.

[AndyMarden]

Can someone please remind me when the Endurance into Rotterdam due to pick the helicopters up?
It seems to me that watching them load should (famous last words) be relatively straightforward - or am I mistaken?

[Polleke_NL]

Yes if for the chinooks and apaches but the blackhawb have their tailwing folded up so their serials are blocked for 3 digits....

[AndyMarden]

OK thanks. I appreciate I might not be able to read the serials of the Blackhawks, but if I see the correct number disappear onto the ship....

[Arjan]

Not sure but you might have good view from the Euromast if the count is enough?

[AndyMarden]

Thanks. Yes, I did consider that, anyone?

Just FYI this is the view from the Euromast towards the Waalhaven. Mind you, the helicopters are 2.5km away from the Euromast.
