Wow, this really is a rare aircraft. I believe it's the only flyworthy S-58 in Europe !!!!

Today they were doing movie shots on the old nuclear bunker. But there could only some parts of the helicopter be seen, you could never see the hole beauty, so I couldn´t take photos.

Is the S58 still around, or has it already left? If still at the airport, is it on the apron or another place where it can be photographed? If so, I am planning to jump in the car tonight to get some pics, but as it is a 3 hr drive, I should like to know if it can de photographed, otherwise I stay at home. Thanks for any info. BW Roger

If it is still at NRN (I'm sorry, don't know) it will for shure be parked at the apron, like the nights before.

This morning it was still there at 9.00 at Pos. 5 but behind the VP-BJD, Gulfstream V.
So you could photograph it only from the left backside at 45° (or from the front with a Tele of 300mm min. :shock: )

I pass the Airport now when driving home and see, then I'll post it here later. 8)

I forgot: In the night they sometimes switch off the light! :cry:

Yesterday (17/11) at around 17:30 the heli wasn't parked on the apron.
At 19:30 I heard it hovering around. Perhaps they were doing some shootings at the time.

Oke, thanks for the info. We'll be leaving in half an hour or so. We have been looking for the s58 for many years, but by bad luck we always missed it. So that's the reason for burning all those km's for it tonight.
i'll let you know when succesfull. BW Roger
