More Enstrom 480s for the CLV

Post by patrick dirksen »

Hi all,

as is mentioned on the news page of Scramble, the Czech Air Force (or more correctly, the CLV, a civil company contracted by the CzAF) aqcuired two more Enstrom 480B-Gs. These are serialled 0484 and 0485.

According to Czech sources, these do have c/n 5230 and 5245 respectively, which would make them fomer OK-VRG and OK-LPT.

These two are an addition to the fleet of four that was already in the inventory (all newly delivered in 2018).
Cheers,

I understood that 6 were order/delivered in 2018. 4 military for the CLV at Pardubice and 2 civil also for training at another base.
Might these 2 new ones be these 2?

Also anyone any clue what the serial system is the Czech using for the Enstroms and the C295s?
Other serials are c/n related but the E480 and C295 have some cronical system.
