First time in Service: 1974. 50 years old. Rebuild and upgraded in Donauwörth in the 90s for 22 million per Helicopter. Why? There was no money for new helicopters but money for „Maintenance“, so they all went under „total maintenance“. The fuel tanks were $100.000 in 1974, not ordered, deemed not necessary. In the rebuild, they were a million dollar and finally added. The CH53ˋs going to Jugoslavia in the 90ˋs needed the white paint for the UN. There was no white paint, so they bought the paint a t a local home builders shop. But it was great time!
Einfach nur Super! Ich hatte Ihn auf dem Heimweg über dem Leverkusener Kreuz im Landeanflug gesehen. Aber auf der Autobahn kann man schlecht kurz halten ;) Erinnert mich an meine alten Tage beim LTG 62

Used to get ch-53s at manston regularly in the 1980s until early 1990s seen this one
The CH 53. espicially in our German version, is such an iconic Aircraft. ❤So sad that they have to gone soon.😢
