Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

EC130's at Texel 17+18/9

Post by medebruijn »

Both helicopters G-CFHH and G-CFBR started in Ireland and came to Texel via EGTK. Today (18/9) they left to EKOD. Plan is to go to Sweden and finally to the Ukraine to the new owners.

Pfiew.....just regained my breath.

These choppers are called EC120's and not EC130's. This put me off ttrack a bit, and you may want to change the subject's title.

Ciao,
Iwan

Indeed EC130B4's .... NO mistake at the CAA database! :lol:
Confirmation: the EC120B c/n's are at this moment counting up to app. # >1570 and not up to # >45xx like the EC130B4 !

BR,

Robert
