Hi Sonny1!
Thank you very much for the Info. I hope we catch them. Does it mean that the UH-60's which are currently deployed in Bosnia, travel back home the same way?

Since the UH-1 at Hohenfelds have been replaced by Lakota's..are the old Heuys stored at Coleman or have the been shipped back to CONUS? Or are they still at Hohenfels?

Hi Arjan.
That's a good question, indeed. I did not think about that :wink: . I havent been there for a while, and I did not read anything about the Huey's. I think they are still flying, until all Lakota's are delivered. Think they have 5 so far :?: .

Cheers
Thomas :wink:

Maybe they are going to the Tunesian Army, just like the last 2 US Army Europe Huey's.

Okay thank you Thomas. I guess you are right, certainly if they only have five so far!

Does anyone know how many Heuys the Tunisians will receive from the US?

Hi all!
That sounds good. I have been at Coleman today on my way to Ramstein. I have not seen any. Somebody have an idea, where is the best spot to get them? Well, i think they are parked at the main apron. Thanks for your help.
Cheers
Thomas
