Left out were KLM (B747), Surinam Airways (B737 and A340)

and the Fly Allways Fokker 70s unless operating on a non-

scheduled flight. Dornier 328 PZ-TVE has been parked inside

a hangar since its arrival back in December 2016. SmartWings

Boeing 737 OK-TSF has been leased by SLM and could be seen

all three months still in SmartWings colours.

The month started well with a military visitor arriving from

Port of Spain and departing to San Juan, PR. SLM also needed

help in the widebody fleet and it was given by Wamos Air

on the 3rd and Air Belgium on the 29th. On the 5th and 6th

just like previous month on the 5th, two Brazilian S-76’s for a

fuelstop. The Venezuelan Learjet operated for the Venezue-

lan and Surinamese ministers of foreign affairs, just like the

Ecuadorian Falcon. A great visitor on the 17th arriving from

Fortaleza and departing to Kingston, Jamaica. The Beech on

the 20th operated for the USAF, it came from Georgetown and

left for ‘TTLP’. A nice Colombian helicopter arrived on the

22nd from Georgetown-Ogle to clear customs and departed

to a local helipad somewhere along the coast called ‘SMHP’,

followed by a second one a day later. They are here on a four

month contract for the oil rigs off the coast.

HK-5180 will be a four month resident in Suriname for offshore rig transports. The AW139 is seen here taxiing to its parking stand to clear

customs before proceeding on to the Heliport near the coast. (Paramaribo, 22 March 2018, Andrew Muller)

The DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) has registered thirty aircraft to a post office box in Houston (TX), under the corporate name of

Silver Creek Aviation Services, a company that does not exist beyond registering these aircraft according to a 2015 article. Beech 350 N7033U

has been registered to that company since July 2014. (Paramaribo, 20 March 2018, Andrew Muller)
