3rd CAB helicopters outbound Europe

[AK01]

Flightplan Romatsa confirms LHDC for the destination. They list a total of 6. So 2 following, or 2 without mode-s.

[TimoBrouwer]

Does maybe anyone know when the helicopters are expected at Eindhoven?

Kind regards,

[Sjoerd]

As posted on FC, the 20310 was among the flt of 6 too;

Rotterdam will be the port of embarkation for the journey back to CONUS

As far as is known right now, helo's assemble at Eindhoven and then continue to the port of Rotterdam, using the temporary heliport in the docks that was used for the other rotations. No mention of Zeebrugge or Rotterdam Airport... and not very likely in my opinion.

[Sjoerd]

I tried to make an overview of 3rd CAB helo's that got deployed, which may be of use for the redeployment. I used the logs from Chievres/Zeebrugge as well as some of the ones noted upon arrival in Volos, GR and passing through at Dresden (enroute to Poland). Mode S codes are listed if known.

z = confirmed arrival through Zeebrugge (37 total)

Two additional codes

11-20356 AE51A8
12-20460 AE535E

[Sjoerd]

Thanks guys, overview now updated!

[AK01]

Two things ,08-20172 belongs to 2-1st AVN, was this left behind, and taken over by 3 CAB?, or did it sneak in to your overview by mistake?
And for the missing, pictures of the port of Volos showed at least 12 different AH64's, so at least 4 to go.

edit, next stop for all seems to be Linz/ Austria.

Pieter,

Thanks, 20172 was indeed used as cab/support for the arrival in Zeebrugge, but never returned to CONUS. Thanks for the great input/updates, most H-60 hexcodes are listed now.

[Hilco]

Currently 3 HH-60M and 3 UH-60M are at linz for a fuel stop. Numbers:
HH-60M 21016, dep 15.50h
UH-60M 20389, dep 15.50h
UH-60M 20386, dep 15.50h
UH-60M 20365, dep 16.38h
HH-60M 20506, dep 16.38h
HH-60M 20310, dep 16.38h
The last one seems to conflict with the list as I am sure it is a HH-60, will check the pics when being at home again
