All four must have gone elsewhere because none of them are listed on the latest AMARG inventory.

We just need to know the serials of the HH-60Ws at Aviano now.

Don't rush, you will soon find them in one of the next AMARG inventories

The C-5 on the 13rd was the last transport aircraft visiting Aviano, this would mean that no "G" model left yet.
