Scramble 459


town for the opening of a new sports facility sponsored by

FIFA. He was to depart on KLM the same evening but due to

a 24 hour delay, the VistaJet Global was flown in. This Global

brought him direct to Geneva the same night. The Caravan on

the 12th was a bad weather diversion from local airfield Zorg

en Hoop to which it departed after 45 minutes ground time.

The Airbus A330 on the same day was the first in a row of

thirsty French widebodies, still due to the disputes in French

Guyana. The Robinson on the 17th came to clear customs

before departure to Zorg en Hoop and will probably be an

addition to the Surinam register soon. On the 18th the Bra-

zilean Grupo de Transporte Especial visited the airport.

A fuel stopping Cuban ATR from Recife to Caracas on the first

day of the month put our hopes up high. The next fuel stopper

on the 6th was a Canadian Bell 429 on its way to Argentina.

The helicopter is destined for Gobierno de la Provincia de

Tucamán. The rest of the month could be used to top up your

Venezuelan Learjet sightings. YV2716 on the 25th was read

as YV2717 but we assume this was a mispole for YV2716. In

general however this month, the local spotters could take

some rest earlier after the busy months with the extra move-

ments due to the unrest in French Guyana.

N304AC is a 2004 Cessna 680. It was delivered to Anadarko Petroleum in 2005 as N565A. In August 2014 the registered owner was changed to

Cottonwood Aviation. In February 2015 the registration was changed to the current one. The FAA has it registered to Cottonwood Aviation at

George Bush Intercontinental Airport. It is being managed by the company for the Apache Corporation (an oil and gas exploration and produc-

tion company). (Paramaribo, 16 May 2017, Andrew Muller)
