The next large (and possibly last) batch of US Army choppers is expected today. Arrival times to follow.

Edit: first arrivals expected around 15:15lt.

[Eric van Lisdonk]

Als het goed is dan zouden de meeste van deze choppers vanuit Polen/Powidz overkomen naar Gilze. Het plan is dat ze een tussenstop maken in Holzdorf en daarna naar Roth. Roth is wel een rare bestemming omdat het behoorlijk omvliegen is. Misschien dat ze daar blijven overnachten?? Om dan de volgende dag via Nörvenich of Spang naar Gilze te komen vermoet ik. We gaan het zien.

Thanks for the update!!! Still the best spot near runway 02 ?

I guess for the Chinooks the best spot will be the main runway in use, today expect to be 10. But if there aren't much wind conditions they can also come in via the 28.

Like on monday...

[r.e.hendriks]

According my info, runway 28 in use at the moment.

Big chance the last five Apaches won’t be parked at rwy 02/20 but somewhere else.

I hope you are right, that means we got more choppers than planned. The following left behind in Germany:
CH-47F: 16-08198, 16-08199, 16-08200, 16-08202, 16-08467
UH-60L: 90-26260, 94-26555
HH-60M: 11-20352, 13-20613
AH-64E: 14-01014, 17-03117, 17-03122, 17-03123, 17-03124, 17-03146, 17-03147, 17-03173, 17-03178, 17-03179, 17-03186, 17-03187

It could be possible that CH-47F 14-08162 (on loan to B/1-214AVN) is traveling with them. No ID on your fifth H-60 but we let us surprise this afternoon.

Greetzzz,
Eric

14-08162 is indeed mentioned in the flightplan.
The five other CH-47s as well.

[r.e.hendriks]

Other flight planned for today.

R20613 6x H60 arr. from ETOU at 1655lt
Serials mentioned 20613, 20187, 20352, 26260, 26555 and 20613 (again) so maybe just the five I earlier mentioned in other posts.

[r.e.hendriks]

R08467 flight is for now cancelled.
Keep you posted…

[Eric van Lisdonk]

AW.139 PH-PXZ is currently inbound Gilze for a fuelstop as Police26.

[GIPS]

Big chance the last five Apaches won’t be parked at rwy 02/20 but somewhere else.

North part of the runway 02/20. So north of runway 28

[OscarM]

Excuses, big chance I've missed it somewhere but:

1: Are all helo's parked at the 02/20 runway? Or some somewhere else.
2: Any info available on when the first helo's are planning to leave for Vlissingen? (because of the travelling time to GR for me)

Thanks!!
