I believe I saw this Bell within the Menzies warehouse today, no registration
visable though, but I did not really check either.

On Monday it was still parked at KLM Cargo.
The registration was difficult to see due to the cargo in front of it.
I think its Italian.
What looked like I-ED.. was painted in a large format on the aft fuselage, but still hard to read.

Op 13 April zijn op JNB twee Bell 407GXP's waargenomen die uit een KLM CARGO 747 werden gelost.
Volgens een bericht op FB zijn beide voor National Airways Corporation.

Hiya,

A Bell 429 chopper is sitting on a pallet in front of Vrachtgebouw 3, visible from Handelskade (1415lt).
I checked the plate and it gives the Manufacturer's Serial No. as 57280

A week earlier also a grey/primer Bell 429 was seen on the same location. That one was 57240.
After painting and completion, both will be delivered to Air Transport Europe, Slowakia.
