Flight of 3 UH-60M arrived at Ramstein a few minutes ago, expected at Eindhoven this afternoon.
Flight of 3 HH-60M underway from Illesheim, almost at Ramstein now, also expected at Eindhoven this afternoon.
More H-60`s are expected but not underway yet.
Nothing departed Eindhoven for Rotterdam at this moment, low clouds and rain here at Eindhoven now, 10:30hrs.

Cheers,

My source has reported a change in the operation: bringing as much helos to Rotterdam Airport today as possible, if a planned test flight turns out successfull. Most harbour activity should then be on Thursday-Friday-Monday. I have no means to verify any of this, other than said source being reliable. Hope this helps.

Edit: Sigh... now there is word again is was about the harbour after all. :uhuh: A flight plan so far exists for 3x UH-60 from EHEH to the harbour, some time this evening.
