???? Heavy Aircraft Spotting at Eindhoven Air Base; Tankers and Transports

On Wednesday February 3rd, this Antonov An-12 of CAVOK departed from Eindhoven. The aircraft has a characteristic color scheme in orange and dark blue. It has been a long time ago that CAVOK aircraft have visited Eindhoven. The company was for more than a year not welcome in the Netherlands due to regulations issues. The An-12B came in on Friday just before the weekend and departed four days later to Gran Canaria. During its departure the weather was horrible, but is was it worth to catch it. The aircraft departed from a dark and rainy Eindhoven leaving a long black trail of smoke behind it.

In the second part of the video the T-054 is seen which is an tanker of the MMU (Multinational Multirole Tanker Transport Unit) which is based at Eindhoven in the Netherlands and Koln in Germany. The aircraft made a flight to the Esso track above the North Sea and it flew to the north of Denmark to fly a few tracks. After a 5,5 hour mission the aircraft returned to Eindhoven. As said in the ATC stream the aircraft made an overhead break followed by a touch and go and finally a full stop. After landing the aircraft taxied to the far end of the runway towards the taxi track back to the Mil East platform.

In the third part made of the video a WizzAir Airbus A320 is coming in at Eindhoven Airport. The plane belongs to the Hungarian company and flew from Varna in Bulgaria to Eindhoven in the Netherlands. Flight WZZ16XL made a smooth landing on the concrete of Eindhoven Airport. It was in the whole afternoon the only civilian plane which came in.

The Royal Netherlands Air Force (RNLAF) KDC-10 which is shown is leaving Eindhoven Air Base in dense fog. The aircraft was on its way to France to Nimes-Garons Airport where the aircraft would receive some maintenance. This KDC-10 T-235 is the last of its kind in the Netherlands and in Europe. The aircraft will be replaced soon by the Airbus A330 MRTT of the MMU which is also based at Eindhoven. The fog was so dense that the aircraft disappeared immediately after take of in the low hanging cloud base. Enjoy the sound of these characteristic engines of this legend of aviation!!!

The last part of the video is showing the T-057 delivery flight. After a 2 hour flight from the Spanish airport Getafe (near Madrid), today the 4th Airbus A330 MRTT has been delivered to Eindhoven Air Base.
