Chris/ Einstein,

On the 3rd we had 3 Griffin's in the two tone green and one almost all grey (deep blue).
The third CH-146 that I can read from my photo's is the the 146487. It flew for about 5 minutes,
before returning. Later on they opened the hangar close to the Canadians and another 2
Bell's could be seen inside.
I believe the single colour Bell to be 146488, although I'm nog 100% sure of the last
diget.

Regards,
Charles

Michiel,

I would be happy if we did get some kind of confirmation that it is "498". Specially
since it is mentioned that 46498 moved on to the Civ registration.

I think these 2 pictures of 146488 and C-GNXI (146498) taken on 16th July 2011 answer the question about the CH-146 at Yuma.

Further to my post immediately above I am now aware that there is a photo of the dark blue CH-146 taken when it stopped to refuel on its way home. It is 146498. Why it was wearing C-GNXI a couple of years ago is anyone's guess.

Photoproof it is 146498, 100%

I saw a picture on FC of ROKAF Hawk on 220ct, serial 67-509.
It had some socket pods on it, so staying there for exercises?
