A lot of american helicopter travel in Saxony

Recommended Posts

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

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.

Ok I can confirm I never turned a wrench on that particular tail number, so not my fault!
