Weather in Meppen was totally crappy today...
Here is a (not so very good) pic I shot today, just to show you the position of the "spotters place" near the heli port.
There is a fire Brigade (?) gate at the Schlagbrückenerweg. This is the only spot where you can take photos.
Unfortunately too many trees and hills at the other parts of the fence.

Image

Shot this Swedish Hkp 16A with 120MM (this Black Hawk is the 101226/01)
It turned and made a fly by at the tower...so I guess it left back home to Sweden.
Still parked is a British Army Air Corps Lynx. Looks like this will stay over the weekend.
(shot it with 280MM)

Thanks in advance,

Looking at the logs, only the Army Lynx is present and perhaps the French NH90, but i wouldn't be suprised if that's gone as well.
