Choppers atm at Rotterdam Airport. will head to ship some time this afternoon, possibly evening, depending on where they will be picked up (my guess would be outside the port, on sea, but that's just my guess).

CNS Xi'an (153) should be arriving in Rotterdam on the 15th of July. As this is a Type 052C destroyer, it should be able to hold a helicopter.

Can't confirm it's going to Rotterdam, however latest(to me available) info shows it departed Toulon about 1 hour ago, so i guess no arrival in Rotterdam tomorrow.
