MM54198/16 MB326 preserved 6203 aug17
The MB326 is preserved at the aviosuperficie Ceraso Il Nido
delle Aquile at N40.93902, E16.49572. It shows at Google Earth
already in place in March 2011.
Capua
The rotorless CH-47 noted here since 2003 is not a mock-up
but a real aircraft. It should be MM80836/EI-814 and came
from storage at Agusta at Frosinone. As the aircraft is still
visible on Google Earth at Capua in August 2017, the sightings
of the aircraft at Viterbo in 2017 must have been in error.
The Flugplatz Museum Cottbus received two UH-1Ds late last year. One of them is this unmarked 71+01 in the storage area. Behind it is another
recent arrival, Sabre 6 BB+237. (12 May 2018, Václav Kudela)
