H60 16-20184 just landed at the Docks of Zeebrugge as Army20814. This one was part of the Oct 2017 load via Zeebrugge.
It looked like a direct flight from Germany to me, so not via Chievres.
Don't know if it was alone, however 9 months have passed since October....

@AK01,
It was a four ship into Zeebrugge, no confirmation on the registrations

[wonju666]

Now visible on ADS-B: R26525 UH-60L apparently heading for Zeebrugge

[GoldenPlane]

Anybody for the current situation? Could the choppers be read off? Or is there a similar construction as when they arrived?

I would not be surprised if a lot of choopers will go by Bremerhaven as well... Because the endurance is heading for Bremenrhaven after Rotterdam.
It is a bit of speculation... but also some other ARC ships are heading for Bremerhaven.

Most ship from ARC are going to Bremerhaven, because it’s one of their hubs for loading and unloading cars and other vehicles

[groundcontrol]

Is there anyone who could confirm that the helicopters at Zeebrugge are beeing loaded into the ARC ship "Patriot" at the moment?

Over the last two weeks, 3-227 AHB flew 20 UH-60M helicopters to the Port of Zeebrugge in Belgium. At port, Maintainers from 615th ASB folded the aircrafts’ blades and will prepare them for boat loading.

Any idea what vessel will be used for the return?

Likely MV Honor (ARC) ETA 13 Jul

Alternatively MV Endurance (ARC) ETA 24 Jul, this would mean the dock has been reserved for the U.S. Army for more than a month

I came to the same conclusion. Just hoping for confirmation when they do leave. Hoping to catch them when they arrive in the CONUS.
