Photographer's remark
(3.1.2015, 16:33 CET)
From this very moment the Royal Netherlands Air Force lost its 303 SAR squadron because of budget cuts. The 3 AB-412SP helicopters are taken out of service on the first day of this year and are sold to Peru. The SAR task will be in civil hands from now as also for the Medevac task they had for the Dutch Waddensea islands. It's a great loss to our Air Force.
Here you see the R-01 hovering above the harbour of Harlingen in very bad weather during a hoist demonstration.
