Are they still at a "one chopper at a time" trickle like yesterday?

Because people tend to think "oh, maybe he is wrong" or just want to see something in writing :-) The sign on the booth says (automatic translation from enclosed photo): "Closed Hall General Information Due to internal overhaul : My Pavilion was originally scheduled for April 15, 2019 Day to June 30...

Re: Konya Anatolian Eagle 2019 - 25 & 26 June

With regard to the Pakistan JF-17s, they were indeed from 28(MR)sq.
Can anyone share the c/ns of 13-144 and 13-145 these are stamped all over the planes in format: FC101xx
(I know what they should be, just want them confirmed ;-))
best regards,

Re: Tag der Bundeswehr Fassberg 15-6-2019

NH-90-NFH 79+51 is not 1046, I do not know what its correct msn is.
Said msn used to be tied to NGEN01 but I do not know how that came about, maybe a misread for 1346 (the NFH should have a much higher msn than the 10xx series), who knows...
We have it marked as a conflict.

Re: Tag der Bundeswehr Fassberg 15-6-2019

Did someone actually read anything on the unmarked Bo105 at the static (its c/n plate was removed) which had a peace of paper in the window marked 6168. This belongs to 8768 which was reported at Grand Central, South Africa, in 2018 Indeed. 87+68/6168 is now registered as ZU-HBO, so they either mad...

with 79+04 becoming c/n 1043. Which is correct? Oh, and 1043 is 79+25 TGEE025 formerly 79+03(1)/TGEF02/TGEA003. Also ex 98+97. After some careful scrutiny leading up to this year's Scramble SMS Europe, that and the Germany online database have the correct list. Obviously, every check helps to (re)c...

Re: Tag der Bundeswehr Fassberg 15-6-2019

Hey Starman! The 440xxx numbers are production control numbers, used in the factory to get all the pieces needed for one aircraft together. Normally, these have a prefix for mayor components, like EP. Don't ask me which prefixes are in use or what they mean :-) For specific frames, see below: EvD & ...

Re: Tag der Bundeswehr Fassberg 15-6-2019

Some NH-90 c/ns:
1100 78+20
1120 (78+30)
1122 78+32 built 11.2015
1128 78+38
1140 79+08 built 02.2017

Anyone got more of them?
Realized too late that they were much easier to read in the hangar on the c/n plate than on serial :D

Re: Oberpfaffenhofen 2019 MIL

Nice catch indeed!
They did not wear the allocated S3-registrations before. So that is new.
It being hangared probably means it is not visible from outside?

Hi Just try to put together the serials of what is there now, to decide for my 3rd visit early tomorrow ... Starting with the list of 20 as shown by Buccaneer S.2B, deleting known departures and adding known arrivals, I get a different result than the 11 Blackhawks shown for 15:05. What I see is 1x...

Are you sure this is a serial and not a callsign?
If serial, then it should be 09-07056.
Indeed, this is "Thor".
