+Gepard Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 (edited) Today i have seen 5 Chinooks, 17 Apaches and one Black Hawk flying over Saxony. I guess, that they are flying to the NATO exercises in the Baltic states. First a group of 4 Chinooks were flying in line formation along the Bundesstraße 2 northbound. Around a half hour later one heli came back alone and it sounds not really good. He still made it for some kilometers before the Chinook had to perform a field landing near the town of Delitzsch. See attached link to the local newspaper http://www.lvz.de/Region/Delitzsch/US-Militaerhubschrauber-muss-auf-Delitzscher-Feld-notlanden One hour later a formation of 8 Apaches with a UH-60 leader were on the way northbound. Two hours later a formation of 9 Paches and one Chinook was on the way. Sorry for the bad quality of the photos. My mobile phone is from stoneage. Edited June 4, 2018 by Gepard 3 Quote

Viggen Posted June 5, 2018 Posted June 5, 2018 Ok I can confirm I never turned a wrench on that particular tail number, so not my fault! 1 Quote
+Gepard Posted June 8, 2018 Author Posted June 8, 2018 The helicopter became a attraction for the local medias, inclusive fotoshooting for a model. Here a link to german TV station MDR. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NneQClyeY_M Quote
