Chinook Gate2 Rijen

Post by DMWR »

Hello,

Today I visited the Gate2 location at Rijen for the Chinook that arrived here. It's out of it's platic cover
and on both sides of the cockpit stands 666. On the rear it has a Canadian flag with the serial 147666
and on the other side only a dolphin. No c/n-plate found by me.

Is that serial real? Looks like a fakenumber...?

It looks real. But at this moment can't find anything about it.
