LYNX
CREWS SHOW THEIR OWN BEST PICTURES HERE ! |
|
|

We're
very happy to say that Lynx pilots and crewmembers participated in
this article with their own material ! |
|
|
|
|
Last...
last... last... at last ! |
|
|
|
|
Last
time you pass your checklist by departing... |
|
Last
time you land on the concrete of Den helder 'De Kooij' Naval
Airbase... |
|
Last
flight... |
|
And
ofcourse the memories, such as here on full sea, departing from the
'Hr.Ms. Rotterdam' |
|
Last
goodbye, supported by 'fellow types' as this Chinook from DHC Gilze
Rijen |
|
Last
time you gather your stuff out of the helicopter... |
|
Last
time you can pose for a picture for memory... Pilots James Lorraine
and Christian Cocheret. |
|
Last
walk to from Lynx to building, last sharing memories amongst
eachother... |
|
This
was it ! Representing the crews on the fuselage, the Pink-Pirate
badge, Acta est Fabula ! (The game is over) |
|
Once
more: All the names of the last crews and teams. |
|
|
|
Acta
est Fabula.... Quid miseret ! |
|
No
more checks, no more foreign operations and missions, Lynx had it's
last ones. |
|
Rigged
with double checkered
flag and a picture of
the figures of all 'The Lynx Flight Units' of all these years. |
|
Are
we sad ? Yes, a bit... but Lynx lands, and NH-90 is ready to start a
new era ! It's the way it works ! |
|
Soon
this machine will be recognized by everyone as the 'new Lynx',
modern avionics and equipment. |
|
For
the Lynx the curtain falls, the sun dissapears behind the horizon. |
