With MTHR15 long gone and the CH53s transferred to the Luftwaffe, stilll CH53 maintenance was done at Bentlage on 6-8 airframes a year till 2017. I you kept a close eye on the NOTAMS and if you were lucky you could catch one on a short test hop This photo is copyright © Lieuwe Hofstra, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
