New York Fleet Week 2009

[Ed]

On the 26th May the following where seen on board the USS Iwo Jima which was berthed near the USS Intrepid as part of the New York Fleet Week 2009 :-

165847 / YS-04 MV-22B VMM-162
166299 / BR-52 MH-60S HSC-28
165594 / CG-08 AV-8B VMA-231
159196 / ??-11 UH-1N HMM-264
160815 / HF-37 AH-1W ???
161553 / EN-08 CH-53E HMH-464
?????? / BR-55 MH-60S HSC-28
?????? / 540 MH-53E ????

BR-55 was wearing a serial, but in my hurry to get elsewhere I obviously missed noting it.

The MH-53 did not appear to be wearing a serial anywhere that I could see.

At about 10.30 that morning a flight of 3 CH-46's where see flying southbound following The Hudson River before turning east near The Statue of Liberty.

Cheers
